Good afternoon Parents and Students,

We are changing things up a bit for the second semester.  Instead of students keeping track of a Reading Log Monday-Thursday, I will have students keep track of a Typing Log.  

We live in a world where technology will continue to shape our daily and professional lives.  Students must be proficient in keyboarding skills as they can impact a person's ability to communicate with others in the future, both socially and professionally.

For today's homework, I've asked that the students sign up for an account on https://www.typingclub.com/.  This is a free website that will allow students to practice keyboarding skills at their own pace.  Students will first take a placement test and then based on their current level, the program will "unlock" lessons.  I showed students where to find the placement test on the website this morning.  

I will give students a Typing Log tomorrow and just like the Reading Log used in the past, students will need to get a parent/guardian signature each night after completing their practice of 15 minutes.  As with any other online homework assignment, if a student is unable to complete the assignment at home, a parent must send in a written note and the student can complete it in the classroom before the bell rings the following day.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at christy.rice@cobbk12.org.

Thanks,

Mrs. Rice

Happy New Year!! I hope you all had a wonderful break! I was super happy to see all the kiddos back in class on Thursday.  Here are some things we will be working on next week and some important dates/reminders. 

Learning objectives for this week...
  • Math- Finding the area of rectilinear figures.
  • Reading- What is close reading and how can I use it to help me comprehend the text I am reading?
  • Writing- Informative Writing
  • Science- Sound

Please help me in congratulating the following students for perfect attendance for the 2nd Nine Weeks:

  • Ja'Khai Martinez
  • Tyler Padron
  • Christian Willis
These students will have a free dress down day on Thursday, January 11th.


Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Coming to school every day on-time is a key ingredient to student success. As we jump into the 2nd half of our school year, the Teasley Attendance Team wants to reward those students who come to school on time every day. Students who have perfect attendance at the end of the third 9 weeks, ending on Wednesday, March 14th, will receive a free dress down day, a surprise treat, and a brag tag for their bookbag. Furthermore, those students who have perfect attendance for the entire school year will have the opportunity to participate in a end of year celebration during the last week of school. Thank you so much for your support with getting your student to school on time every day.


The school-wide Spelling Bee will be on Friday, January 12th.  I want to wish Vedaant and Farhan the best of luck as they represent our class in this Spelling Bee!


Throughout the month, we will be learning about safety. Our learning will culminate with a field trip to Safety Village on January 23rd. There is NO COST for the field trip. Students will be bringing home a permission form AND a liability waiver from Safety Village. Both must be completely filled out and returned by January 12th. On the day of the field trip, please have your child wear their class t-shirt, sneakers and standard attire bottoms.
