Friday, September 14th, 2018
Next week we have PE on Thursday.
Dear Parents,
QUICK REMINDERS:
Saturday, September 15th Broomfield Days Parade: The Broomfield Days Community Parade begins at 9:30 a.m. Our school colors are blue and white!
Monday, September 17th is a teacher professional development day.  No School for Students
Literacy: This week during literacy we continued working on parts of a paragraph and used paragraph structure to write small moment personal narratives. Most students have written a few small moment personal narratives.  Next week, students will continue writing small moment narratives and will eventually revise, edit, and publish one or more of their narratives.
Math: This week we continued to work on multiplication and division. Your child has now been introduced to the multiplications/divisions for 2, 3, 5, 9, 10. Please continue to encourage your child to spend at least 5 minutes a day practicing these facts. Our expectation is that our third graders will be fluent with all the facts through 10s by the end of this year. The more practice, the easier it gets.
Social Studies/Science: We have been working on a unit about our community.  This week we spent time investigating how and why individuals work in their communities to change things for the better.  We also discussed how each of us plays an important part in our community and that every little bit that we do for others counts.  Next week, will explore who works in a community and the difference between public and private services.

Homework for next week:
  • Check in with your child about their Mystery State assignment.  These are given on Mondays and due on Fridays. The kids did a great job this week learning about Nevada.
  • Help your child practice their Dictado sentence.  This should be written in their homework notebook each day for practice.  Students have a Dictado quiz on Fridays.
  • Practice math X and / facts 2, 3, 5, 9, and 10.
  • Read for 15 to 20 min every day after school.


Mark Your Calendar:
Saturday, September 15th Broomfield Days Parade

Enjoy the long weekend!  
Sincerely,

Aisha Galt
