Terrific Thursday!

Thank you all for making conference day so productive! I enjoyed meeting and talking with all of you. If along the way you feel like you would like to come back in and further discuss any topics that we discussed, please feel free to contact me.

Tonight for homework is as follows:
Spelling Test: Syllabication of two consonants in the middle of the word: yellow, sister, blotter, sudden, napkin, dentist, happen, admire, trumpet, number, magnet, contest, invite, moment, final, total, pilot, polo, icy....

Math: Finish completing workbook page 45

Map Work: They must complete both pages.. the front page may be the hardest if they weren't listening closely. All they have to do is list the four kinds of maps and write a SENTENCE about why that map is important to use, or what is its purpose.

Family Tree Sheet: This is not due until Monday. These are the oral directions that I shared with them today. First, put the names of your immediate family members in the roots..(the ones you live with in the house excluding the pets) Next, they were to color any 3 green leaves on the tree. Then they are to write the names of a few family members and special pets in some of the leaves and on other leaves they are right words or phrases that are special and specific to your family... ie. eat chocolate cookies for dessert on Mondays, order out Pizza on Saturdays, grandpa wears a red shirt everytime he comes over the dinner. (things or events that are truly special to your family)

I probably won't send the next batch of papers home till later on next week. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
