Parent/teacher conferences coming up soon



We had a great Wednesday. 

We started by finishing our Oklahoma booklet.  There were too many pages that could have gotten lost if we had taken it home to finish yesterday.

In math we worked with word problems.  Each answer was a fraction.

In reading we peer read and compared the two books about Abe Lincoln.  We will work more with this tomorrow.

We did some practice in our 100 Words workbook.  We had to find the correctly written sentences.  I am trying to show them that if they read a sentence and it doesn’t sound right, it probably isn’t.  As a child, I could only decide if I read it silently a couple of times.  Sentences written incorrectly just seem to jump out if we read them carefully.

In spelling we had to place the correct word in the sentence and write the sentence, remembering to use the capital letters at the beginning of the first word and the correct sentence ending.

Parent/teacher conferences are coming up soon.  I am unable to do conferences on Friday before spring break, but am willing to do them after school on another day.  These are the third nine week conferences, and are OPTIONAL.  I have nothing new to spring on you.  If you do want a conference and there isn’t a time on Thursday, then just let me know.  I will find a time that works for you.  Thank you for understanding.
