Social Studies and the Southwest. We focused on the geography and economy of this region. The students thought "Black Gold" was fascinating. We are starting to learning about the different tribes of Native Americans: Hopi, Navajo, and Pueblo.
Overview of Reading Work (AKA: homeroom if not completed in class)
Many students will finish this work prior to the end of the day, so you may or may not see this item(s) come home. If they have not completed it you should see a "HW" next to the item in their agenda.
Tuesday - AM Spelling Sheet
Wednesday - AM Spelling Sheet, Vocabulary/Grammar Sheet, Study for Spelling Test
Thursday - Review Vocabulary (Family Times)
In addition, students should be reading 5 nights a week (Sunday-Thursday) 20-30 minutes.
I hope this helps.
Reminders
- Please remember to send a note in if your child is going to be out. If they are out on a Friday they will need to make up the quiz over the story upon returning. I will try to get home anything else. Thanks for understanding.
- Spelling Test will always fall on Thursdays - if your child looses their list during the week, all lists are posted on my website under the "Reading" tab.
- Remember to sign agendas nightly and "purple" card in the Thursday Folder
