Weekly Wrap Up Friday March 20, 2015

The copier is broken, so no homework folders will go out this week. I will assign math on a day to day basis, and get spelling and dictation to the kids on (hopefully) Monday.

Things to talk about with your student:

• Ask them to tell you key details about the novel we read this week. Also ask them to discuss the characters and their qualities, along with the themes contained in the novel.
• Talk to them about answering all parts of a question, whether it is in writing or speaking. many students are struggling to make sure they answer what is asked. Either they are hurrying, or they do not look past the first part of a question. Encourage them to slow down and to be thoughtful.
• Ask them about the flyer they made.
• Ask them about how they feel they did on math chapter 8 math test
• Help them set a goal for the week. Make the goal more meaningful than, I want all 5s on something. Be more specific. What will they do to achieve the goal?

It was a good week together! Report cards are due the district on 3/25/15, so it will be a bit before you see them.
