January 9-13

"January is here, with eyes that keenly glow,
A frost-mailed warrior 
striding a shadowy steed of snow." 
-  Edgar Fawcett

We began Unit 5 in math this week.  Students used fraction pictures to name numerators and denominators.  This week they will represent fractions using standard notation, words and drawings.  They will also recognize equivalent fractions using a visual fraction model and solve multiplication problems using helper facts.  They will have a Home Link each night for homework. 

Our spelling rule this week involves words with long i sound.  Students will have a spelling assignment on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.  Please help your child study on Thursday night for Friday's test.

We began our One School One Book read aloud today.  All students and teachers at LSS will have the opportunity to read Wish by Barbara O'Connor.  Please ask your student how he or she is enjoying the story.  

Scholastic book orders will go home this week.  Orders will be due back by January 27th or please feel free to order online using our classroom code HB244.

Have a wonderful week!
