Hello Parents and Students!
Another amazing week working with you all- I am very excited to be working at West Jefferson Elementary and I appreciate the opportunity to work with you children!
This past week we wrapped up our assessments in math and reading. We began working with fractions in 5th grade classes- comparing fractions by finding equivalents and discussing the role of the "multiplier." In our 4/5 reading we looked closely at characters and traits and discussed how those "traits" are what make up a character's personality. Additionally, we began working in small guided groups. In writing, we continued our work from the previous week examining narrative writing. We read several pieces and then wrote journal entries from a character's perspective...developing the topic with concrete details and examples related to the topic from the text.
Last, I would like to thank you all for having students sign up and attend the assessment days!
Hope you all have a wonderful Labor Day Weekend and look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday the 6th.
Mr. M
