Hello Everyone,

I wanted to thank all of you for your understanding with my absence last week due to a family emergency. I will confirm our October date for the 4/5 Back to School Night in the next few days. Although I missed the play, I know the kids did such a nice job with it--good news travels fast.  Thank you to all the parents and staff members who contributed to this wonderful event and the cast party. We are so fortunate to have the arts so visibly supported here at Mountain.  The kids really shine with these opportunities.


ELA: We will continue to build a reading life with good-fit books of high interest and appropriate reading levels. 30-40 minutes of nightly reading is recommended. Reader's Workshop: Lucy Calkin's curriculum with Read Aloud books: The Tiger Rising and Wringer.


Math: homework on factors, multiples and divisibility will continue each night this week as we prepare for our test on this unit this Friday. Please check your child's planner for specific page numbers. We will continue to review our concepts. 5 minutes of math facts practice each night. Multiplication Music


Science: Experiments with magnets and electricity continue.


Social Studies
We will continue our study of the American Revolution and the events that lead up to it and beyond.


Writing and Grammar: weekly vocabulary/spelling word work, grammar (FANBOYS) and editing. Narrative essay.


Have a great week!

Warmly,

Mrs. Young
