"The years teach much which the days never know."
Heritage Day
What Will We Be Learning This Week?
Math
Students will be reviewing math concepts next week. The concepts we will review have been determined by benchmark assessments taken last week. The general areas needing review are fractions, measurement and multiplicative comparisons. Students will also be looking at specific skills that assessments have determined as individual ‘Areas of Need’. Students will be asked to complete some EOG Practice questions for homework next week. If you see an area needing review, you are welcome to make a note on your child’s homework assignment. Thanks, as always, for your support.
Science
Students will read Science Studies Weekly newspapers of their choice next week. Students will be expected to complete a crossword activity with each newspaper read.
Language Arts
Since there are not many more days left in the year, we are going to stop doing the Blue Journal as we read the book. This will give us time to finish the book, as well as more time to finish our cursive before the year is through. We will still have a test at the end of the book and possibly other culminating activities including work with character traits and plot if time permits.
