April 15 - April 19 News!

Spelling:

 Our spelling words next week will be on more latin roots port, form., trans, and flex. Our test will be Thursday, April 18 since we do not have school Friday, April 19. 

English/Reading:

We created our poem for the book we will have published.  I sent home the flyer for you if you want to order a book for you and your child.  Please return those next week so they can be sent in with the final poems.  The students are excited for this!  We will continue reading Edward Tulane next week too.  

Social Studies/Science:

  We started Chapter 10 in social studies on the Southwest region.  We will continue learning about the Southwest over the next couple weeks.  We are coming to an end in our energy unit in science as well.:)

Math:

  We took our area and perimeter quiz this week.  Half of the class did well on it, the other half not as well.  So, we will be doing more reviewing on these two topics.  I will have the students try to improve their grade as well on the quiz before putting it in the gradebook.

Important Info:

April 10-17- IAR testing- We started this week and have 2 more days next week.  Please remember to have your child get a good nights sleep and eat a healthy breakfast on these days!  Please make sure their chromebooks are fully charged and they get to school on time.  :)

Have a great weekend!
