Classwork 11/2

Sorry, forgot to post yesterday.

Math: No homework.  We tried a different type of lesson in math on Friday, ask your child how they fared.  It was very interesting for me to see how they responded to the challenge.  Special adulation to David and Matthew, who both had to work through a few hurdles, and did so with positivity.  Everyone did a very nice job.

LA: Spelling tests are being corrected, no other homework.  Due to the short and crazy week, we did not have a WST, but we will have one every week through Thanksgiving break.  If you are looking for a way to help out your child on skills tests, take a look at their practice book (PB) throughout the week, because what we cover on the WST is always straight from the PB pages.

Science: Electric boxes were awesome- we had the chance to go show third grade our completed work.  Great job everyone.

SS/Science/Switch: We are now going to Ms. Groshens class three times a week for SS and science.  Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, a hour each day.  She will keep me updated on homework, and I will post it here.  Please contact me with questions.  We'll be going to Ms. Strantz's class for Q3.

Miscellaneous:

Please invite a veteran to our Veteran's Day program, which will be Monday, November 12th.  Sign up sheets have gone home- if you are missing one, contact Mrs. Skinner or myself, and we'll get you set up.

Continental math is going to be up and running soon.  This is a great opportunity for math expansion in ALL students, and is open to ALL students.  Mr. Groebner will be running the program Wednesday mornings at 7:45 right in our very own classroom.  Come one, come all.

Extra recess Monday if the Vikings can somehow find a way to beat the Seahawks.  SKOL!

Thanks,
Mr. Schmidt
