Class Website

Dear Parents,
I have updated and activated our
classroom website:
http://rutheller.net.
This website is designed to provide you with
important classroom information. It will be
updated weekly with the Listening Post and other
information as needed. Before we meet on next
week, I would like you to go to the website and
read about general policies including homework,
communication, math facts, birthdays, Reading
Lotto/book reports, Word Power, spelling, and
more. Please feel free to email me.

Math Facts

Daily homework will include practicing math facts.

Each school night, please print out (see website)
two 100 problem math times tables facts. Students
have been given a 1, 2, or 3 minute goal. Time
your child and have him/her complete as much as
possible within the time given. All 10 practice
sheets will be due next Monday along with the
signed coversheet. The website has more details.

Mrs. Eller

Reading Lotto

This year your child will participate in

a
reading program called Reading
LOTTO. This is the way we do book reports in
Room 10. All the information about this is posted on
the classroom website. I will be introducing this to
the students this week.
IMPORTANT: The first Reading Lotto book
report will not be due until September 9. BUT,
you need to start reading right now. You should
use this book for your Reading Log.
