Learning objectives for the week:
Unit of Inquiry Theme: Sharing the Planet: An inquiry into communities and the relationships within and between them.

  • We will continue to learn about various contributors to our society. We will be choosing an individual whose actions had a significant impact on the American Revolution and we will learn how to research information about them and write to reflect on their contributions. In our research we will take note of how authors organize text and how we, as readers, can determine the structure that they used to organize the text. There will be an assessment on Friday on text structures. If you would like your child to practice at home, they may bring home their inquiry notebook. They can also read a variety of texts and determine the structure the author used to organize the text. 
  • We will learn how to use adjectives in our writing as well as how to create complete sentences that include subjects and predicates. We will have a classwork task on this on Tuesday 9/4.
  • In math we will continue our learning of how to use a number line to set a benchmark for when we round numbers. Assessment will be Friday. Here is a resource video for rounding that might be helpful.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQryP-AIwO8&feature=youtu.be
  • We will have an assessment on the events leading to the American Revolution on Wednesday. Students will have the option to take home their Social Studies Weekly to use during their nightly reading time to review.
  • Is your student interested in showing off their amazing talent on stage? Auditions for the 3rd-5th Grade Talent Show will take place on Wednesday, September 5th after school. Please complete and return the permission slip to school by Wednesday, August 29th at 2:45 pm. Permission slips went home last week.


  • Wednesday August 29th is our first early release day. Please plan accordingly and send in a change of transportation in writing if needed. ASP will have regular operating hours.

  • Are you ready for some FOOTBALL?  Teasley's Physical Education department is proud to partner with the NFL and their PLAY60 program to bring you BACK TO FOOTBALL Friday on September 7th.  Back to Football Friday is a school-wide event that encourages students to get active and excited about the upcoming football season.  Students are encouraged to wear their favorite NFL football gear.  During their specials time the students will participate in football related stations testing their throwing, catching, kicking, punting, and speed/agility.
    Like any school-wide event, WE NEED YOUR HELP.  To volunteer please use this link  http://signup.com/go/WscGUKW.

    Extra! Extra! Read all about it! As we jump into a new school year, the Teasley Attendance Team wants to reward those students who come to school on time every day.
