Mrs. Hahn's Class: Week 6

This weekend ask your children about:

The Elements of Poetry ~ they have been working on a poetry project all week
Wind Energy ~ we created a windmill this week and talked about the potential and the kinetic energy that exists
Money ~ money, money, money, mon - ey...we have been on a money kick this week learning how to represent it, write it, add it, subtract it, and make change
Personal Narrative Writing ~ some of the kids have finished their final copies and you will begin to see them come home. They are great pieces of writing for their first go at the writing process

Reminders and Requests:

Please continue to study those math facts
We are in need of some tissues. These kiddos go through tissues like wild fire. If you could donate some to the class that would be wonderful!
As it gets cooler, please keep in mind that shorts are probably not the best bottoms option for these little ones:)
I would love to have your help in the classroom anytime you are available. Please send me a quick email, even the morning of and let me know you would like to come in. We ALWAYS have something for you to do!

Next week:

We will finish up Unit One ~ Stories Worth Telling Again and Again
The children will take an assessment covering Unit One. You can't prepare for this at home. It is all based on things that we have done in class.
We will pretest Chapter 2 in Everyday Math so I can best meet the needs of all students. Then I will proceed with teaching the subject matter that each individual child needs.
