Mrs. Caliendo's Chronicles
October 4, 2019



Social Science  We will begin studying the history of Downers Grove.

Spelling  New spelling words went home on Monday. Students are being asked to choose 3 activities, one from each column, on the Spelling Homework Menu. This will help them master their spelling words. If students are using their time wisely during centers, they should have plenty of time to complete this in school. Please check in with them. All 3 activities should be stapled to the Spelling Homework Menu. It should be turned in by Friday, October 11, which is the day of the test. The test will include 15 words from the student's list (teacher's choice) and 2 sentences, using any of their 2 words.

English Language Arts  We will be reading The Tortoise and the Hare. Students will be identifying Theme (The Message)/moral. 

Please keep track of your child’s reading (20 minutes, 20 days) and record it on the October log.

Mrs. Caliendo's Math Class Students will be taking the Unit 1 assessment on Thursday. A study guide went home today. Please make sure to review this with your child. It is due on Wednesday. Please continue to practice addition and subtraction facts.

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.


Important Dates & Announcement

During our SEL lessons students have been learning to focus their attention, listen, use self talk and be assertive. Throughout the year, your child will be bringing home Home Links that go with several of our lessons. They are simple, fun activities for you and your child to complete together. They are a great way for you to understand what your child is learning and for your child to show you what he or she knows.
