The STAR test is next week! Since we have been working so hard in class and I have seen great growth over the last couple of weeks, for homework their will be a project reinforcing measurement of capacity. If you need any assistance in practicing these concepts please feel free to email me. Also, attached to this blog post will be worksheets you can download to further explore capacity. Additionally, check out the videos on the CLASSROOM WORK BLOG, under Math2 and Math3.

Even though STAR test questions are not being sent home PLEASE don't forget to keep practicing those multiplication facts and addition/subtraction facts.

THANK YOU to all the parents who helped make our field trip today to the Philharmonic possible. Special thanks to Mark Gogolewski and Alissa Morganti for volunteering. Our kids did amazing today and showed great interest in the orchestra. Their favorite was the last song from the soundtrack of Harry Potter.

Below you will find our spelling words for this week. Homework is posted on the Documents page, and the Newsletter is also posted. Please be sure to read the email that went out this morning to get a better idea about STAR testing. Additionally, you will find a check-off list on the Resources page will be a great guide to let you know what is on the STAR test as well as end of the year goals for the last report card.

Just as a reminder do not forget...
               
                1. Student Store Project - 5 small items by Thursday of this week
               
                2. Need to bring $5 in cash for the field trip on Monday

I am trying to organize links to useful websites for extra practice or indpendent study on a new page called Resources. I would like to add a list of helpful links that will assist parents in creating or practicing concepts we are working on.

Below are the spelling words for this week and a link to downlad the document you see below...

As a reminder there will be no spelling words this week.

Homework for this week is going to be "business as usual." However, it is being used to supplement for NO ENRICHMENT this Friday (12/21). This homework will be returned on Monday, January 7, 2013. In a whole NEW YEAR!
