The TEasley
Variety show
“Teasley’s Got talent”
Can your child sing…dance…do magic…or have some other unique talent?
If so, we want them to be a part of this year’s variety show!
We are showcasing the very best of what our students can do to put on an amazing performance!
The students will have the opportunity to pick up permission slips starting the week of February 6th outside my door. Permission slips are due back to me NO LATER than Friday February 17th. Once we determine how many students are interested in participating we will decide on the dates for auditions and rehearsals.
Permission slips will include a behavior contract for you and your child to sign. This must be completed in order for your child to participate. No child can participate without a signed permission slip. If you have any questions please contact me at the e-mail address listed below.
Thank you!

English/Language Arts
Reading to Gain Information
We will continue to learn strategies for gaining knowledge while reading nonfiction books.
Informational Writing/Social Studies
On Monday, your child will receive a packet explaining an Informational Writing project that integrates Social Studies and with. I think the children will thoroughly enjoy this assignment!
Irregular Verbs
Next week our focus will be on Irregular Verbs: am, is, are, has, and have. Rather than a spelling test, we will have an assessment of the students' ability to use the correct word in a sentence.
Science
On Tuesday, January 31, we will host a High Touch High Tech in-house field trip that focuses on Space. We are learning how the sun, moon, and stars relate to one another. Our goal is to be able to compare and contrast our Sun to other stars by using physical attributes.
Math
I am excited to announce that we will begin Math Workshop on Monday. We will begin studying measurement, while reinforcing,strengthening, and extending concepts and skills we have already covered. Math Workshop will allow more individualized instruction in a small group setting. While I work with a small group, the other children will be working in small groups, at learning stations.
