Announcements and Friendly Reminders:
  • Progress Report Cards - We are halfway through the 3rd nine week grading period (3rd quarter). I will be finalizing Progress Report grades next Wednesday, February 2nd. Please, make sure if your child has missing work to get it completed by Tuesday.  We do use Flex Time everyday to get unfinished work completed or correct any assignments.  Please, encourage your child to complete work in a timely manner. Some assignments are online in Schoology, Epic Books, Splash Learn and Readworks. These can be completed at home. With this being said, please check Home Access Center (HAC) to see your child's current grades on assignments, quizzes and test. If you see a "M" in Home Access, it means you child has not completed and turned in that particular assignment. Remember, students can make corrections or redo any assignment, quiz or test that is below 70% for a possible 70% per school district policy. 
  • Valentine Boxes and Cards/Treats - In your child's Thursday folder there was a flier about Valentine's Day. Students are ask to create a festive, fun Valentine's box to collect Valentine cards/treats from their classmates. Also, students can make Valentine cards or treats for their classmates. Please, have your child bring his/her Valentine box and cards/treats on Monday, February 14th. 
  • Stay informed - Make sure you have the FREE Class Dojo app on your phone so you can see messages from me. Friendly Reminder messages are sent out a couple times a week! Plus, I usually post 1 - 2 pictures a week in our Class Story on Class Dojo showing some of the activities we do during our school day!
  • Scholastic Book Order - If you are interested in getting new books for your child, consider ordering books from our Scholastic Book Club. Order online at: clubs.scholastic.com/ Our class code is: NP79X​
  • Reading Unit - Our current unit: Folktales, fables, myths, legends and dramas. This unit will wrap up the first week in February. Schoology (Reading course) will have charts and information about this unit. 
  • Writing Unit - Poetry. We started this unit last week with writing our first poem. We will continue to notice and analyze mentor texts (reading poetry with a writer's eye) to help us with our own poetry writing. We will be publishing our best 2 poems next week. 
  • Science Unit - We are currently in the Weather & Earth's Forces (Volcanoes, Landslides, Earthquakes) unit. I've created a folder in Schoology with links, images and information for this unit. Students can also use my Science Links on this website for additional information and support in understanding this unit.  The test will be on Friday, February 11. 
  • Math Unit  - Our current unit is 2 Digit and 3 Digit Addition and Subtraction (counting up and back on a number line, regrouping in subtracting, estimating (rounding), and odd/even numbers). This test will be next Friday, February 4. Students can use Dream Box and my Math Links on this website for additional support in addition and subtraction. ​​

Announcements and Friendly Reminders:
  • We are a few weeks into the 3rd nine week grading period. Many students are missing work. I know some students have been absent, but missed work still needs to be completed upon return. Everyday we use our Flex Time to complete missing work. Some students are doing a great job at working diligently on missing assignments. Then, there are some students (even with redirection to stay on task) are not getting work done. Please, encourage your child to complete work in a timely manner. Some assignments are online in Schoology, Epic Books, Splash Learn and Readworks. These can be completed at home. With this being said, please check Home Access Center (HAC) to see your child's current grades on assignments, quizzes and test.

  • Class Dojo - Check messages and your child's daily participation by tapping on the Class Dojo app each day. I try to post almost daily a Class Story to share a tidbit of what's going on in our classroom for parents. Each month I'll print off a Class Dojo report and send it home in Thursday folders. Thanks so much for all your support.

Announcements and Friendly Reminders:
  • Lunch Menus and New Time - The January calendar was in yesterday's Thursday folder. Here is the link to check the menu online (since there has been lots of changes to the menu this year). Our new lunch time is 12:05 - 12:35pm. 
  • Writing Homework This Weekend - We are currently working on our One Little Word Project. This is a project in which each student creates goals for him/herself for the 2022 year. After writing these goals in class, each student chose One Little Word to represent and guide themselves to pursue these goals this year. Each student has written a page in their writing notebooks about why they have chose their One Little Word (some students may have chosen to bring their writing notebooks home to continue to work on this over the weekend).  The homework I have assigned each student to do this weekend is to collect words, phrases and pictures that represent their One Little Word they've chosen. These words, phrases and pictures can be cut out from magazines, catalogs/advertisements, or printed from searching online. Please, have your student bring these clippings in a ziploc baggie on Monday. We will use them to create a poster/collage with our One Little Word and written page. See Mrs. Lilleboe's example below. 
  • Picture Retake Day - This Tuesday, January 11 is an opportunity for your child to get a picture retake. Bring your original picture package to school on Tuesday. Order online at by clicking HERE. 
  • PTA Meeting (virtual) - Here is open invitation to our next Elsa England PTA Meeting. Even if you are not a PTA member, you are welcome to hear more about PTA and the presentation on Life Long Readers from Mrs. Kupersztoch. Thursday, January 13th at 7:00pm on Zoom. The link is on the image below. 
  • Dismissal Procedures - Elsa England has add approximately 300 students back on campus. Car Rider lines in the front and back have become very long. There's a couple of options: One make sure you have an "orange" 3rd grade car rider sign in your car. This will help to speed up the line because teachers can see your child's name and have your child ready for pick up. Another option is if you live in close proximity to the school, maybe consider having your child walk or bike to school. This is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and talk with other friends who are walking or biking home too. Dismissal Map Click Here
  • Science Unit - We will begin our new unit on Weather & Earth's Forces (Volcanoes, Landslides, Earthquakes) next week. I'll create a folder in Schoology with links, images and information for this unit. Students can also use my Science Links on this website for additional information and support in understanding this unit.  The test will be the first week in February. 
  • Math Unit  - Our next unit is 2 Digit and 3 Digit Addition and Subtraction (counting up and back on a number line, regrouping in subtracting, estimating (rounding), and odd/even numbers). This test will be in first week in February. Students can use Dream Box and my Math Links on this website for additional support in addition and subtraction.
