Happy Friday!
Wow! What a great turn out at the RBE Literacy Trunk or Treat last night! I loved seeing everyone dressed up and getting to see families back at RBE! Thank you so much for being such amazing families and supporting RBE and all the kids.
Wednesday Work
- The students and I talked on Thursday about the importance of still doing school related activities on Wednesdays. These are still school days even though they are learning from home. Each Wednesday, they will have a trick word packet to complete and are expected to do some math (ST Math or EM games) and reading (Sora, Epic, Capstone, books). They are also expected to attend our Zoom at 8:00 a.m.
- Here is our November Choice Board and I will be sending it home with students on Tuesday, November 10 (next Wednesday, November 3 is a teacher work day so students aren't expected to do school work since it is a No School day, I know it can be a bit confusing).
Important Upcoming Events
- No School: Tuesday, November 3 and Wednesday, November 4: Election Day and Teacher Work Days
- Book Character Pumpkins Due: Thursday, November 5
Parent Teacher Conferences
- Thank you to everyone who has filled out the Parent Teacher Conference time request form. If you haven't filled it out yet, please do so this week. I will be sending out your scheduled time via email early next week.
- Our goal at RBE is 100% attendance. I look forward to getting a chance to Zoom with everyone and share about your student's progress so far this year.
- Please let me know if there is anything specific you would like to discuss at conferences.
Friday Folders
- Friday folder checklists and comments are filled out this week. Please read over these and initial below the checklist or in the comment section.
- There are Fundations and math activities in the Friday folder. There are optional practice for your student. They are from our current math unit and our next Fundations unit.
- These can be used on Wednesdays for additional practice if you would like.
Next Week's Learning
- Reading
- We will continue learning about making inferences next week.
- We will also continue talking about identifying the central message or theme in a story. Fairy tales and fables are great ways to practice identifying the central message or theme. This is what lesson the author wants the reader to learn from the story.
- Writing
- We will continue working on opinion writing next week. We will be forming an opinion about a book character and using details from the story to support our opinion.
- Math
- We will be wrapping up Unit 2 next week and will test on Friday.
- We will be working on different ways to make numbers and also applying "rules" to numbers and seeing what patterns we notice.
- Science
- We will be identifying if plants can live in a specific habitat based on their needs. We will be discussing why a plant can live in one ecosystem, but not another.
- We will also be identifying the different ways that seeds move. My goal is to get outside and take some pictures of some seeds if possible.
- Fundations
- We will start Unit 5 on Monday. This unit covers multi-syllabic words. We will be discussing the different syllable types that will be present in different words.
- Our trick words for next week are against, knew, know. Please continue practicing these words at home.
Have a fabulous weekend!
