August 25, 2010 - Study Guide and Vocab, Speed Drills, and States Notebook

Wow! The third week of school!! Everyone is doing a very good job getting adjusted to TWO teachers, switching class, bringing folders back, and so on. I just have a few reminders and announcements to keep us on the right track!

We do Reading VOCAB every Monday. I will try to post the VOCAB on my blog because some words are not listed in the back of the book. Everyone will need to make sure they have their VOCAB defined for Tuesday because we start writing VOCAB sentences and using them when we read the story. Also, they will have a VOCAB Quiz on Fridays after their Reading Test. This will include matching definitions to the words and starting this week, filling in a sentence with a VOCAB word. The matching part is exactly like the definitions they were given or looked up so it is very important that they are studied every week!!! To study for their Reading Test, I give them a Study Guide every Thursday. They should be looked over on Thursday night to prepare for the test on Friday. Both the VOCAB and Study Guide will be turned in Friday morning.

We are continuing with our Multiplication/Division Speed Drills in math. This week they will be drilled on the 0-5 tables. Please make sure you are studying your multiplication tables!!

Lastly, this week we are going to start working on our "States Notebook"! Mrs. Robison’s class will go to the Computer Lab on Wednesdays and Mrs. Barron’s class on Thursdays. This is a great project and the students will have so much fun doing this all on their own. Everyone needs to bring a small binder to keep their states in and the handout that they have been given should be placed in the front so they know what states they have done or need to complete. At the end of every nine weeks we will have states notebook check. You can print out a template at home for them to use, or they can do this on their own paper but it should be written neatly and only one state per page. This is a school project and should be completed during our computer lab time. They will look up the following information on each state on http://www.factmonster.com/: (I also have a link for this website under the "links" section)


1. State Name

2. Organized as a Territory/Became a State/Joined the Union

3. Capital

4. Abbreviation

5. Governor

6. Motto

7. Nickname

8. Flower/Tree

9. Bird

10. Gem

11. Song

12. And any other additional facts they want to include.

The handout they bring home today will have the states for this nine weeks listed.

*** If your student participates in Kirby Banking the Kirby Banking Reps will be here on Sept. 8th to beginning the banking for students.

Game Tattoos

Tattoos will be sold tomorrow morning. They will not pre-sale on Thursday, so if you would like to buy one bring money on Friday. Thanks!

Some students are still working on using their class time wisely to complete written assignments. If your child is bringing home a great deal of written work to be finished, please talk with them about using class time to complete work. Thanks!!

August 16, 2010

Folders were sent home today for my class and Mrs. Barron's class, both need to be signed and returned tomorrow!

There is a t-shirt order form in the folders that needs to be returned by Friday. Also, a note is in your student's folder if you are missing any forms or envelopes.

August 09 - August 13

Parents - our school e-mail is down and we can not send any out. I can not reply to any e-mails you have sent until this is fixed. Also, don't forget all forms need to be brought back by Friday.

Everyone needs to bring a book from home  to read when their work is finished until we can go to the library.

In Math we are working on Multiplication Speed Drills. We will begin with the 2-3 tables. The speed drill has 25 multiplication and 25 division problems and they are allowed 5 min. We will do the speed drills about five times, but once a student has made a 100, or missed none, they no longer have to do them. After most, or all, have completed the drill with a 100 we will move on to the next set. I will let you know when we are going to move on to the next set so you can practice at home.

• Tomorrow is the last day to bring the $2 pizza money for the party on Friday - I still need it from: Anna Morgan, Jensen, Clay, Cason, Riley, and Mya
• The Book Fair is in the library this week, we all went to preview the book fair today and the students will be able to go the rest of the week if they bring money to buy books.
• We are planning a Field Trip to the Planetarium in Montgomery for next Friday, January 29. The cost is $2.50 for the students and $4 for adults. If you would like to drive or go with us please let us know. We will leave the school around 9:00 am and the show at the Planetarium will start at 10:30. After the show, we will go to Eastdale Mall for lunch. They are going to start a unit on the Earth and will be learning about the solar system soon, they will really enjoy this!!

Pizza Party!!!

We didn't get much response for tomorrow so our party will be next Friday. Please send $2 to cover the cost of the pizza and we have had one volunteer to bring something sweet and one volunteer to bring drinks. So we need a couple more volunteers for those things. THANKS!

Report Cards and Pizza Party

Report Cards are due Friday!!!


This week has been crazy and we have stayed super busy! However, the kids earned a pizza party for all making their AR goals and I would like for them to be able to have it this Friday. If everyone sends a few dollars I order the pizza or if I have some volunteers to get this together for us that would be GREAT! Also, if anyone would like to bring us a sweet treat to eat with the pizza that would be super too! PLEASE let us know ASAP if anyone can help, I think it is very important for them to be rewarded for the hard work they put into reading! Thanks!!!

Pop Tops

Our class is going to start collecting pop tops for EB Johnson's family so they can get a night free in the Ronald McDonald House. Kim Sasser offered to bring milk jugs in to place in the room so the class can see how many they have. Please help with this great project!

Weather Information

Parents, check the school web site under the announcements , WSFA, or WTBF (94.7) for information about school hours the last part of this week if the school hours change due to the weather.

Deer Hunt $5

The deer hunt is this weekend and they are asking each family to send $5.00 this week to cover the expense of the food. A flyer will be sent home today about this. Thanks!
