Thank you, parents, for a lovely Valentine's Day party. The class was very appreciative and excited about the day. It seems like February is speeding past, and before we know it, it will be March, spring break, and the end of the third quarter. My goal this weekend is to put grades onto SIS so that they are available to you by Monday evening. Let me know if you have any concerns.
Here is what is happening this coming week:
Writing - Students are publishing either their short story or letter, both of which were written to a prompt. After that we will begin persuasive writing. However, that may not begin until next week. We'll see how it goes!
Math - The geometry test will be this coming Friday. Because chapter 20 is so short, the test for ch. 19 and 20 has been combined. Ch. 20 focuses on symmetry and congruent figures. We will also learn how to flip, slide, and turn figures to check to see if figures are congruent. Review for the February evaluate test will also take place.
Reading - Students continue to practice close reading as we read and respond to test like questions. We will also continue to read the selected literature for each group.
Science - We will begin our study of the water cycle.
Social Studies - We will complete the ch. 9 study guide on Tuesday and test on Thursday. On Friday we will begin the second chapter on economics - ch. 10. In this chapter we will learn about producers, consumers, and supply and demand.
Important Events:
Mon. - No School!
Tues. - SS. study guide comes home; 7x flash card come home! Show practice times on new log!
Wed. - Fact review test / 5x, 6x, and 9x facts;
Thurs. - Library; Math Evaluate Test; social studies test;
Fri. - Math test over ch. 19 and 20;
