Happy Holidays!

Dear families,

Wow, It is hard to believe we are already here! Winter break begins tomorrow, Dec. 21st. The students will be on break until January 6th. The time has been flying by!
So far we have had a great year. I hope you enjoy your holiday with your family and treasure the time spent... they only stay little for so long!

When we return in January we will begin a new unit of reading and writing.
In reading we will begin a new unit called Series Books. We will read books in a series and notice how characters behave. We will study character traits and development. Students will be in book clubs based on their choice of books.

In January we will have our second I-Ready assessment. I will inform parents when it will be taking place.

In writing, we will also start a new unit on Opinion writing. This unit fits well with Series Books, we will use the books we read to write opinion letters about them. We will be working on this unit for the next few months!

In math, we are going to complete unit 4 after the break. We have covered measurement to the inch. We will wrap up the last few lessons on place value, telling time and units of measurement.

We have completed our Air and Weather science unit. We reviewed the ABC's of air and weather and wrote what we knew in our All about the Weather books!

Social Studies will begin again after the break. We will be working on communities, mapping and the history of Walled Lake!

Thank you for sending your children to me each day, I feel so grateful to have such a wonderful, kind, caring class! Your children are so special and they give me a wonderful sense of purpose every day!

See you in 2020!
Mrs. Scheck
