Heim's Happenings
Wow! What a beautiful weekend! I hope everyone was able to enjoy time outside with friends and family. This week in ELA we will be taking a CFA on Tuesday over The Highwayman and we will continue our study of poetry both creating and analyzing through writing. Your child has worked super hard over the past couple of weeks and I am very proud of his/her effort.
Please encourage your child to read each night for 20 minutes and complete his/her book report on the dates due on my website under BOOK REPORT PART TWO. We only have two book reports left for the school year - these last three are so important because we will be revising, editing, and reflecting on our writing. Please check with your child to make sure they turned the book report in that was due on Tuesday, February 27...it’s not too late to get it in!
Also, check with your child to make sure they have paper and pencils. Hope you all have a wonderful week!!!

This is the final week of the nine weeks. I will be offering tutoring before school in my room from 7:20-7:45 each morning this week. Any child who is struggling with a math concept or needs to review to do a retake before the end of the nine weeks should come in. Any retakes need to be completed by Friday.
This week we will be finishing up our study of complementary, supplementary, adjacent, and vertical angle relationships, and using those relationships to find missing angle measures or solve for x. We plan to have a quiz over this material on Tuesday. After that we will be moving on to study the conditions that form a triangle.
I hope everyone was able to enjoy a little of the beautiful sunshine this weekend! Have a wonderful week!

We are continuing to cover the Catholic Church in England, with emphasis on the Protestant Reformation. More specifically, the causes, effects, people, and counter reformation.
We will have a CFA on Friday to cover these standards. Next week’s newsletter will have specific dates concerning testing and TNReady practice. Have a great week!!
Parents homework....ask your child what it meant to “sell indulgences” and how this effected the Reformation.
