Math Test Next Week

One more way you can help your child ctudy for the math test on Tuesday is to let them help you cook!  (I know ~ easier said than done!)  Capacity is a hard concept to understand.  The customary units we are focusing on are cups, pints, quarts, and gallons.  Using real life examples in the kitchen would be a great way for them to figure out which units of measurement to use for objects that are not right in front of them!

Math Test on Tuesday

We are going to have a measurement test on Tuesday!  Now that we're getting used to DragonSpace, I'm going to start posting the details of these tests on my calendar section.  You will see that the test itself is already posted, and I'm going to add the description of what to focus on as soon as the test is written!  (We are working on it right now!)  That way it should be a one stop shop for you. Everything you need to know about the test will be in one spot!

Assemblies

I have just added fliers for the upcoming Veteran's Day Assembly and Dragon Pride Assembly in the Documents section of my DragonSpace.  Check them out!

Sugar Coma

Today was probably the most relaxed day we've had so far this year!  I think that everyone had so much fun last night that we are still recovering!

If your child is having a hard time with the math homework tonight, don't get frustrated!  Weight is a VERY difficult concept for them to reason with when they don't have the objects to weigh right in front of them.  We have just started to scratch the surface!

The Social Studies review came home in their Take Home folders today. The test was written exactly from this review.  However, we do know more about some of these terms than just the given definitions.  Challenge your child to tell you all they know about these vocabulary words!

I posted the link for the Diabetes Walk at Rockenbaugh on Wednesday under the Breaking News section of the CES website.  Check it out!
