Mrs. Caliendo's Chronicles
October 31, 2019
Social Science We will take an assessment on Downers Grove on Friday, November 8. A study guide went home on Tuesday. Please make sure your child reviews the study guide and learning log. They can also review using Quizlet. Sign into Google Classroom and find our class "Calski". We have our field trip scheduled for November 14th.
Spelling New spelling words went home on Monday. We will continue to work on the 3 spelling menu activities at school. They will be due on Friday, November 8, the day of the test.
English Language Arts Students are writing their argumentative piece in which they are persuading their audience to buy their haunted house.
Please keep track of your child’s reading (20 minutes, 20 days) and record it on the October log. It is due on or before November 5. The November log went home today too.
Mrs. Caliendo's Math Class Our focus will continue to be on three-digit subtraction strategies and expanded form. Please continue to practice addition and subtraction facts at home too.
If your child should forget their Student Book or their Home Connections workbook at school, they can go into my google math classroom from a home computer and print the page they will need to complete for homework.
During our SEL lesson this week, students learned they have empathy for others when they feel or understand what they feel. They also learned that noticing and understanding others' perspectives helps them have empathy. Please point out to them at home when you notice them showing empathy.
