Weekly Update for March 1st-5th, 2021

 

Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Friday!  This week our school raised money for the American Heart Association by sending in a dollar to wear a hat today.  I know I am biased, but I think we have the cutest kiddos in their hats!

Today marks the half way mark for the 3rd nine weeks. Parents, please check your students grades in powerschool. This quarter proves to be challenging for our students, so reivewing material at home will ensure success for your student. If you would like to know how you can help your student at home, reach out to me, I am here to help!

Have a great weekend and I look forward to another great week at LCEU!

Sincerely, 

Mrs. Dina Knight 

Weekly Update for February 22nd-26th, 2021

 Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Friday!  Everyone is C115 is completely water logged and tired of indoor recess. I am crossing my fingers hard that the weather forcast stays as it is projected right now, we need some outdoor time!  It's hard to believe that next week will bring the month of February to an end, time is truly flying.  March has a few important dates that I wanted to give you in advance. March 12th is a student holiday, March 18th is Spring picture day and the end of the 3rd 9 weeks is March 31st.  

Looking ahead to our curriculum next week, we will finish up chapter 9 in math on multiplying multiples of 10 with a test on Wednesday.  In ELA we will begin looking at a author's purpose for writing a text and in science we will continue to keep digging in soil.  Surpisingly our soil experiements did not get too mess this week, we will conduct an experiment next week with water and soil and that may have a different outcome!

Have a great weekend!

Weekly Update for February 15th-19th, 2021

 Dear Parents and Families, 

Happy Friday!  Even though it is a dreary, rainy Friday, our class had an awesome Friday.  We wrapped up Chapter 8 in math, which included adding and subtracting 3 digit numbers. A few students still seem to struggle, I will be working with them one on one in class, but help at home would be great as well. There are problems in their math workbook they can go back and re-work. Your suppport is greatly appreciated!  We will be moving onto multiplying by 10 in chapter 9.  We are also moving onto to a new unit in science with soil. Students love this unit, we observe and do a few experiements with dirt, so I apologize if your students clothes come home a tad dirtier than when you sent them. 

Have a great weekend, I look forward to another great week here at LCEU!

Sincerely, 

Mrs. Dina Knight 

Weekly Update for February 5th-9th, 2021

Dear Parents and Families, 

 Happy Friday!  I hope you all had a wonderful week. Despite the cold temps and rain, AND indoor recess (4 straight days, but whose counting?)  the class and I had a wonderful, productive week.  Throughout the week, I worked with students in small groups to strenghten their addind and subtracting 3 digit numbers, and we are making awesome progress.  If you would like to help from home as well, their are practice problems in their math workbooks that you can have them work out on notebook paper or on the whiteboards that I dropped of at the beginning of the year. 

The Bookfair began this week!  It is virtual again,and here is the link if you are interested in purchasing books for your student https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bookfairs/cptoolkit/homepage.do?method=homepage&url=lakecarolinaupper1
