A Lucky Week!
I think we will have a lucky week due to the arrival of Spring on Thursday! Hopefully, the snow will stay out of our area tomorrow and we can have another normal week. This week's topics include:
Language Arts: This week's skill in reading is using reference sources (encyclopedia, almanac, thesaurus, dictionary, atlas) to help with research. We will be learning how to use these books for a project later this year. In writing, students will be given a prompt and will write a 5 paragraph essay on the topic to write in class. This will be counted as a test grade and will be due on March 28. There will also be word work and spelling this week. Lately, students have been forgetting to turn in their word work packets on Thursday. Please encourage your child to remember to turn in all their work, so that they can get credit for their work.
Math: Another week of Fractions! Hang in there, we're almost finished with fractions. This week's skills include adding and subtracing fractions with like and unlike denominators and ordering fractions (again)!
VA Studies: We are starting our 3 week unit on the Civil War and Reconstruction. I am breaking the unit into 2 parts. Look for the study guide for the Civil War to come home tomrrow. There is a lot of information in this unit, but it is really fun to learn about (and teach) about this time in American history. Our culminating project for this unit will be to create a diorama depicting a scene from this time period. I need shoeboxes (20 to be exact), so please send them in if you have any. Be sure to review study guides daily and use my edline page for additional practice and review.
Notes: The PTA book fair will start this week. Literacy Night and the annual PTA BBQ dinner is coming up on March 27 at 6:00. Mark your calendars for these fun events.
