Week of February 8

 Good afternoon everyone,


We have had an awesome week!! This week we worked on subtraction, point of view, text dependent analysis, and natural disasters. The kids have loved relating everything they read and watch to point of view. They are getting it!! Woohoo!! Something you can practice at home with your child besides multiplication facts are adding and subtracting 3-4 digit numbers. The majority of us have it and those of us who don't will have it before the end of next week. Thank you for your support!!

Also, all of R2 will be celebrating "Read Across America".  We would like for you to read a book and be interviewed about your career. If you work in any of the following fields and are interested, please email me ASAP: medical field, firefighter, zoologist, computer coding, or hospitality field.

As a reminder, we will start our book study next week. Please, if possible, try to have your little her here by 8:15. We will begin working in book study groups from 8:15-8:45. These books will only be read here at school, so you do not have to worry about keeping up with them at home.

Last but not least, you should have your child's report card no later than Monday. They have been mailed out. We are now in the 3rd quarter, so let's start the quarter off strong!! I have attached the agenda for the week below.

Week of March 22nd

 Well, we made it through another week!! We have a few more to go and Spring Break will be here before we realize it. We began the week with finishing up our book clubs and are finishing the week with our "College Day". You will see pics from both below. We were out Thursday and I'm glad the district thought of our safety first. Another good thing was we do not have to make up a day for being out, thanks to the virtual world. This week, we will have 2 asynchronous days, in which the students will stay home but log on to our Google Classroom and go through the Pathway to complete assignments. The 2 days are this Thursday and Friday, March 25th and March 26th. No new learning will occur on those days, but students will still be responsible for completing and turning in assignments to be graded. Students will log on at 9 and will be working virtually from home on both days on material that we have already covered. My office hours both days will be from 9-11 AM in case there ...

Thank you for all of my awesome teacher appreciation gifts!! I even was treated to San Jose this week. I received a lot of my favorite snacks (popcorn, Werther's, and mini Chips Ahoy) as well as some gift cards to my favorite restaurants and stores. Thank you so much for everything!! Thank you for being so supportive as well. We are all one community and I wouldn't be able to do it without your support!! I hope what the kids take with them is always give their best, believe they can accomplish anything they desire!! Thanks for sharing your babies with me! Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to see them today (though every week is Teacher Appreciation Week) because I had an emergency come up, but I will be back on Monday.  With testing coming up next week (the week of the 17th), we are going to be spending the next week just focusing on math and reading. So, no new notes in science and social studies until after the 19th. We are focusing on geometry, measurement, an...

Week of April 12-16

 Well, I hope everyone has had the opportunity to relax and recharge this past week. We will come back in at 100 and then, Thursday and Friday will be asynchronous. My office hours will be from 9-11 on both days, in case there are questions. I will have the class on and they can pop in and ask questions. Some students took advantage of this last time. All asynchronous work is due by midnight Sunday. The following week we will begin MAP testing and then start reviewing and wrapping up for state testing. WE ARE READY for this and more. I believe they can and will as long as they take their time and read carefully. Sitting in class with them, I see and know what they can do. There are mistakes made and usually it's because they are not taking their time. This is shown when I go back and have them to sit with me, re-read the question, and redo their answer. And  BAMMMMMM, they get it right!! I remind them there are no redos on MAP or state testing. We will continue to work on slow...
