October 4th Newsflash

Weekly Newsflash

I can’t believe we only have ONE more week before Fall Break! Where is the time going?! 

This week students will be completing a series of mini projects before heading off for break, but first let's look back on this past week. 

Celebrations, Creations & Discoveries!

Hispanic Heritage Fair: The kids did a FANTASTIC job with their Hispanic Heritage projects and presentations! On Friday, we held part one of our Hispanic Heritage Fair, where students had the opportunity to present to one another. I am SO proud of them and all of their hard work!

Mystery Book Tasting: We also had our second Book Tasting, and this time our genre was Mystery! Students had the opportunity to preview and explore a variety of mystery books in hopes of finding one they might enjoy reading for our October Book Genre. It was so much fun to hear about the books that kids were excited to read and possibly start a book club to make it a little more fun!!

Class Happenings This Week

Hispanic Heritage Cultural Presentations: Students will be wrapping up their Hispanic Heritage Month Cultural presentations this Friday! Parents, please keep in mind your child may request some materials throughout the week for this. Any food presentations must be made at home and brought in to share with the class for Friday. Please take note of peanut allergies within our classroom! If your child is bringing in food, please also be aware it must be enough to share with all 28 students in the class.

Writers Cafe: Students will get to share their writing that they have completed so far this year with their classmates in a fun way!! We will provide little bites and drinks while students are in writing circles sharing their writing samples. 

Pizza Friday Snack

Thank you to the Waugh Family for providing our Pizza Friday snack this week! We appreciate you! 

Homework

IXL Math: Students should complete their assigned IXL concepts each day with a goal of reaching a SmartScore of 80. If your child becomes frustrated after working on a concept for 20–30 minutes, please have them stop and move on to the next concept. I do not want homework to become overwhelming or frustrating.

I will also start giving students approximately 20–30 minutes of homework time in class, which will give them an opportunity to get started and ask for help when/if needed.

Reading: Please continue 20 minutes of reading each night. Our October genre is Mystery, so students should choose a Mystery book for their October reading.

Spelling: Please practice this week’s spelling words with your child throughout the week so they are prepared for their test on Friday.

Villa’s Annual Trunk or Treat

Saturday, October 24

Villa’s Annual Trunk or Treat is coming up! There are still openings for cars, as well as other volunteer opportunities.

Families can sign up here:

https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090F4FAEAD29A6F58-64964881-trunk

We are also asking for candy and non-candy treat donations. Donations can be dropped off at the Admin Office during normal business hours, Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–6:00 PM.

Thank you for your donations and continued support!

This is all I have for now, have a lovely week!!!

September 28th Newsflash

Hello Families, I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I wanted to just give you a look into this week's Class Happenings!!!

Catch-Up Week

This week will be a Catch-Up Week for our class!  I like to use this time to give students the opportunity to complete any unfinished work from the previous weeks and make sure they are feeling caught up and on track.

Students who are current with their work will have the opportunity to choose projects or topics they would like to dive a little deeper into, enjoy cooking/baking and/or art activities, as well as plan for our cultural project presentations happening the end of this month. 

Students will still be receiving lessons throughout the week, but we will also be using this time to get caught up so that we can start fresh for the start of October!!

Hispanic Heritage Cultural Showcase

The next two Fridays, students will be presenting their projects for our Hispanic Heritage Cultural project this month. This Friday (10/2) and next Friday (10/9) afternoon, students will have the chance to present or view their classmates work. These projects include bringing in a recipe or dish, performing a dance/song, presenting a cultural item, or recreating an art piece. 

Students may ask for help gathering supplies throughout the next two weeks, so please keep in mind which date your child has signed up to present. Please note: if your child is bringing in a dish, there must be enough for 28 people, keeping in mind our class allergies: peanuts/hard-boiled eggs. 

Homework

  • Math: IXL - GOAL: SmartScore of 80 on each concept
  • Reading: 20 minutes of daily reading. Our October genre is Mystery. Once your child has completed their book, please let me know so that they may give a 5–10 minute book talk to the class. No project is necessary.
  • Spelling: Please practice with your child so that they are ready for their spelling test by Friday.
 

Pizza Friday

This Friday we will be back to our regular schedule with Pizza Fridays. I encourage students to still pack a snack for the morning if they would like, but they will not need to bring a full lunch (unless they've opted out for pizza). 

Thank you to the Waugh Family for bringing in this week's pizza snack!

August 31st Newsflash

Hello Families, I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I wanted to just give you a look into this week's Class Happenings!!!

Catch-Up Week

This week will be a Catch-Up Week for our class!  I like to use this time to give students the opportunity to complete any unfinished work from the previous weeks and make sure they are feeling caught up and on track.

Students who are current with their work will have the opportunity to choose projects or topics they would like to dive a little deeper into, enjoy cooking/baking and/or art activities, as well as find ways to help and volunteer around our campus. These are great times to explore their interests and find fun but meaningful ways to contribute to our school community.

Students will still be receiving lessons throughout the week, but we will also be using this time to get caught up so that we can start fresh after Labor Day!!

Weekend Work

Any students still behind on work by the end of this school week will be sent home with work to be completed and returned following the Labor Day Weekend. Missing work and any needed notes or instructions will be brought home through their communication folder, along with the current homework folder. If your child brought work home, they will also given a small slip that will need to be signed and returned. 

 Please keep in mind that some of the work they brought home may look a little different from the exact assignment they were working on in class. Because we use a variety of hands-on materials in our classroom, I will sometimes need to send home a different version that allows them to practice or complete the same skill at home.

I encourage students who are a little behind to bring some work home so they can get caught up without feeling overwhelmed the next week. Although this week is our Catch-Up Week, students are still receiving lessons and working on some larger projects in class. My goal is for Catch-Up Week to help students feel more organized and successful, not to make them feel like they have an overwhelming amount of work to complete.

Labor Day

Homework

  • Math: Review Packet, Days 6-10
  • Reading: 20 minutes of daily reading. Our August genre is Free Choice. Once your child has completed their book, please let me know so that they may give a 5–10 minute book talk to the class. No project is necessary.

August 19th Newsflash

It was such a pleasure seeing the work each of the students put into their Book Talks last week. I want to thank each and every one of my parents who helped their child keep up with homework over the summer! I'm already impressed by the students' eagerness to get back to work and be involved in lessons. 

Thank you, also, to all my parents who attended Parent Orientation last week. If you were unable to make it, please let me know and I can send home the parent packet with your child. Inside is important info regarding Villa, the classroom, and our curriculum plan for this year. It also includes permission slips and Pizza Friday forms. 

For those of you who have sent back Parent Surveys, I will be including a Q&A portion in my next Newsflash answering any questions you may have listed on that form. (If it is an individual question concerning your child, please expect an email within the next week of my response.) If you haven’t had a chance to turn in your survey yet, please do so when you can. Your responses help me get to know your child better and understand how I can best support them throughout the school year.

Class Happenings

Students are off to a great start!  Last week, we focused on learning our classroom routines, procedures, and expectations, along with a few mini-lessons and assessments. This week, we will begin more lessons while finishing up assessments so I can make sure each student is placed in appropriate groups for weekly lessons. 

 

Homework

Math: Review Packet (Mon-Fri will be due DAILY this week). Students should be completing 1 lesson a night and turning it in daily.

I was informed that the QR code was not working so I have the answer key links posted below.

Spelling: Spelling will begin NEXT week! Your child will bring home a spelling list to practice throughout the week. Please encourage your child to spend a little time each day reviewing their words, so they feel confident and prepared for their weekly spelling test that will be given every Friday.

Developing strong study habits and learning to complete and turn in assignments on time are important skills we want to help our students build. I have already begun Study Hall for students who have not completed their homework, giving them additional time and support to get caught up and stay on track.

If you would prefer for your child to opt out of Study Hall for missed homework, please email Christy Cantu at [email protected] with your reason for opting out and the plan you will have in place at home to help your child stay on track with their daily homework.

Our goal is always to work together to help students develop responsibility and positive habits that will support their success throughout the school year.

July 22nd Newsflash

Welcome Back to a New School Year!

Hello, Class 207 families!

I hope you have all had a fun, relaxing, and memorable summer! I can't believe the new school year is almost here, and I am so excited to welcome everyone back. I have been busy in Boston at training preparing for the year ahead, and I can't wait to see all of my returning students and meet my new ones!

As we get ready for the first day of school, I wanted to send a quick newsflash with a few reminders and important dates to help your child feel confident and prepared for a fantastic start to the year.

Summer Homework

I hope your child has been able to set aside a little time this summer to work on their summer assignments.

Math:
Summer math packets will be collected on the first day of school.

Writing:
Students should choose two writing prompts from the summer writing packet. I'm not focusing on a specific length; instead, I'd like students to concentrate on writing with a strong beginning, middle, and end. These assignments are simply meant to encourage creativity and help students organize and express their thoughts through writing.

Reading:
Your child may have read several books over the summer, but they only need to complete one book report project. The book report packet includes several project ideas, but if your child would like to create their own project that's not listed, they are absolutely welcome to do so!

During the first week of school, each student will give a Book Talk to the class, on the book they chose to do their book report project on. This is a fun way for students to share a book they truly enjoyed reading over summer break with their classmates.

Their Book Talk should be approximately 5–10 minutes and include:

  • A brief introduction to the main characters and setting.

  • A summary of the story, including about three important events (without giving away the ending!).

  • A favorite passage from the book (just a few sentences or up to one short paragraph) along with an explanation of why they chose it.

  • A recommendation of who they think would enjoy the book.

  • A fun book rating (5 out of 5 stars, 10/10, two thumbs up, etc.)

Please set your child up for success with making sure they complete their summer homework by the first day of school. If any summer assignments are not finished by the first day of school, students will continue working on them during the first week of school at home or possibly in study hall until they are completed.
 

Parent Survey

It is important to me that I am able to support your child the best way possible throughout this school year. Please fill out the following Parent Survey and return it to me by the first week of school. Knowing any important information or expectations you may have this year regarding your child will be extremely helpful to me in helping to make your child's school year as successful as possible.
 

 Important Dates

The first couple of weeks of school can be busy, here are some important dates for the month of August to put on your calendar. 
 

Friday, August 7th -1:00–2:00 PM – Open House
Everyone is welcome! This is a wonderful opportunity to:

  • Meet my new assistant and myself.

  • Visit with classmates and families.

  • Bring in and organize school supplies.

  • Get comfortable with the classroom before the first day of school.

Monday, August 10th- First Day of School!

We are so excited to welcome everyone back!

Thursday, August 13- 6:30–7:30 PM – Parent Orientation

This is an important evening where we'll share everything you can expect throughout the school year, including classroom routines, curriculum, communication, volunteer opportunities, and ways we can partner together to help your child have a successful year.
