Weekly Report
Hi there! I hope you all are enjoying this spring weather. The next three weeks will fly. I wanted to let you know before time is up how much I have enjoyed having your child in class. There are always good days and bad days, and I am thankful for spending mine with your kids this year. What a year it has been!
We will take our spring MAPS tests the week of May 10. I will send a reminder out closer to the actual days.
Kids are bringing in fidget spinners and toys. This has become a major problem. I have had to take some items away. If your child needs to have one, please send me an email. Otherwise, keep the items at home please. Thank you for your cooperation.
Reading--We will begin Module 10. Our story next week is called When the Giant Stirred. It is a legend. We will be working on making inferences, author's craft, theme, and figurative language. We will have a quiz on Friday.
Math--We will finish up Topic 14. Then we will work on Topic 16--Perimeter.
Spelling--Words this week focus on the vccv pattern. Test is on Friday.
Social Studies--We will begin a new issue of Scholastic News on Monday. Science--We moved on to some mysteries on The Human Body. We will be making a "mechanical" hand.
English--We will focus on suffixes and have a quiz on Friday.
