News from Smith's Beach
Students are reading a variety of books and working hard with the 40 Book Challenge. Guided reading groups are taking place. These groups provide a small group setting for discussion of books and ideas. Students are completing the author study project, and you can view your child's booklet on October 8. Our focus this week will be on learning how to ask good questions.
In Social Studies we are concentrating on states in the Western Region. On Thursday (Smith) or Friday (Moricz), students will have an assessment. They will be expected to correctly locate the states and capitals of this region on a blank map.
We had a great number of parents and students participate in last Thursday's Math Night. Our Guest Reader Schedule was sent home as well as the Writer's Workshop Schedule. Please remember that on Monday, October 8, we will have an Open House from 1-3. This event takes place during conference week. We look forward to having your child share his/her accomplishments with you.
I appreciate all of your support. Your children are enthusiastic, humorous, and hard-working. It is an absolute privilege for me to have such an awesome group of students and parents.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.
Fondly,
Kathy Smith
