Scary Typhoons!

Dear Parents,


It’s the fifth week of class. Teacher Scott is back from his vacation but we still had combined classes this week. Glad to have him back! We did not come to school on Monday due to crazy typhoon weather. Watching the super strong winds and rain on TV was quite scary. Hope everyone stayed safe. I hope we don’t have any crazy weather for a while. We are going bowling this week for Fun Day. Believe it or not, I have never bowled in my whole life! I guess I was never interested before. Maybe I’ll try this week. Or maybe not.


This week we completed:


Reading: We read “Max Malone” this week. It is a story about 3 friends – Max, Gordy, and Austin. Austin is getting surgery so he couldn’t go get an autograph from Dusty Field. Max and Gordy got some baseballs for a cheap price and sold them for a higher price. Then they get a special signed baseball for their sick friend.


Science: This week, we started Chapter 2 lesson 4. It is about the needs of animals. They need air, water, food, and shelter. They also respond to their environment just like plants do.



Individual Student Comments:


Joe is having trouble paying attention sometimes but he tries to finish his work quickly.
Richard is very attentive and answers questions asked in class.
Shawn is doing well in class and understands most of the material taught in class.
Steven is doing well in class and finishes his work very quickly.
Willy is a great reader and finishes his work very quickly and accurately.




Question #3


How do people get lower prices at an open-air market?




Have a great weekend!


Teacher Alice
