Today, I began reading Because of Winn-Dixie. Ask your child about the funny market incident in the first chapter. Ask your child what is funny about the dog’s name. During writing time, the students chose a piece of writing from their journal and made changes (editing and revising). Then they wrote a final copy (publish) of the journal entry. It will be graded.
No one passed a multiplication test today during Rocket Math. I hope your child is spending about five minutes at home each day, using the test from class to practice. When a student does not pass a test, he/she takes the same one the next day.
Unexpectedly, Miya moved back to Iowa. We now have just 21 students. That is a small number of students to have in 3rd grade. The other 3rd grade classes at Coronado have similar numbers.
