* English: We will continue our mini unit on sentences and subjects and predicates.
We will also work on lessons covering how to correctly write book titles and introductory words.

*Spelling: We are working on list 2 of the year. We will work in class on the 3 activities, but please help your child monitor their work and time management. They need to have 3 activities completed by next Friday, 10/5. The test will also take place that day, so please study the word list at home.
Thanks!

*Mrs. Olsen's Math Class: We are working on addition and subtraction word problems and learning new strategies that help support our fact fluency and mental math ability.  See if your child can demonstrate their understanding of the "make a friendly number and count by 10's up the number line" strategy and the break apart strategy. A practice test was given to your child this week. It is due on Monday. We will spend Monday reviewing for the test. The Unit 1 test is on Tues. 10/2. Any unused worksheet pages in the SB or HC for Unit 1 can be completed as extra pratice. 

Have a great weekend! Happy Fall!
