There will be no assigned homework Thursday (January 2nd) or Friday (January 3rd). Obviously I encourage playing first in math to really continue practicing memorization of multiplication and division facts, but it will not be counted as a homework grade for this week. Students can also always be reading and keeping track of their books on their Book Worm Log. I hope to see lots of filled in logs coming up!

On Thursday, January 2nd students were given their spelling and vocabulary words for next week. On Monday, January 6th I will give a spelling "pre-test" and any student that gets 100 on that will not have to do spelling homework for the rest of the week, nor will they have to take the spelling test again on Friday, January 10th! I will send the tests home either way on Monday, if they got 100 please sign and return it; if they did not get 100 you can keep and use that to help study throughout the week and they will get another chance on Friday.

Monday:

• ELA: noun worksheet
• Math: worksheet

Tuesday:

• Math: Study for Chapter 6 Test - Multiplication and Division numbers 6-9

A Bookworm Log was sent home that can be filled in when they start and finish 3rd grade reading level books. Parents, I ask that you please monitor that students are actually reading the books they are writing down as complete. Thank you!
