Room 15 News & Notes October 1 – 4, 2018 Mrs. Nakamura hnakamura@slusd.us https://www.sanleandro.k12.ca.us/Domain/109 (Go to Teacher Pages) Parent Teacher Conference Notices were sent home last Thursday. I also emailed everyone their conference day and time. Please send back the hard copy, or email me a confirmation as soon as possible! This Wednesday is Picture Day! Also, there is no school this Friday! That means that homework and spelling test will be due this Thursday. Our first field trip permission form is going home today. Please look for the form, and turn it in as soon as possible. Only 7 chaperones for this trip! MATH: This week we will work on finding 1, 10, and 100 more or less than a three-digit number (ie. 1 more than 401 is 402; 10 more than 401 is 411; 100 more than 401 is 501). We will also look at number patterns, and see what place value is changing (ie. 143, 133, ____ the tens are changing, and they are going down, so the next number must be 123). ELA: Comprehension skill: Key details. We will read the non-fiction stories “Families Work!” and “Families Working Together”, and talk about how photos, captions, and text can help us find key details. We will also talk about goods and services, and how families play a role in them. Sight Words: goes, new, other, any, work Vocabulary Words (in the stories): check, choose, chores, cost, customers, jobs, spend, tools PICTURE DAY is this Wed., Oct. 3rd. Say cheese!
