If they do not have snack permission or they do not have money in their account they will need to bring cash for lunch and snacks. Please send in small bills. They can still bring a lunch, but they are going to be responsible for keeping up with their lunch, we will not carry that for them.

HOMEWORK
We have a lot of kiddos that are not getting homework completed.
Math: They will have nightly math homework Monday thru Thursday, either on paper or on the computer.
Reading: They also have 120 minutes of reading each week from Friday to Friday that needs to be recorded in their agendas. This will be recorded in txconnect the second nine weeks. It will not be part of their average for grades, but you will know each week if they are completing their reading.
Back Row: Karen LaCombe, Melinda Hoover
Front Row: Jennifer Mackie , Reagan Habermacher, Melissa Reagan, Abbey LarremoreHere's what's happening in 5th grade this week:
Math
What's Happening This Week?
-Financial Literacy Skills

Check your student's planners for homework assignments this week. Math homework is assigned Monday through Thursday every week. Math journals should also be used to study skills we learn in class.
Science
Matter and Energy
Students will identify mixtures and solutions. Students will also discuss how to to separate them efficiently.
Recycling- Sorting materials according to their physical properties.
Language Arts
- We will be wrapping up our Biographies this week.
- We will be working on procedural text this week as well.
- We will be taking our district common benchmark this week, please be sure your child brings an extra book to read for when they are finished with the test. It will only be a 90 minute test, so it is not as long as a STAAR.
This week we have 120 minutes of reading homework, 30 minutes can come from Istation!! Homework grades are not being put into txconnect. They will not effect grades, but it will show up so that you know if they are completing homework. Remember our goal is to get them ready for next year and a lot of classes will have homework count as 10% of their grade. This is a great time to talk to them about averages, and show them how missing assignments can hurt their grades. On the flip side show them how doing their homework and getting that 100 can help as well.
