Happy Friday and Happy February! Groundhog Day is Sunday,
and it looks to be a good one! Our daily schedule is changing...
we will now have math in the afternoon (12:55-2:10) and ELA in the
morning block, with Reading WIN from 11:15-11:45.
This will begin Mon. 2/3.
Coming Up Next Week:
Spelling: New Spelling words & homework menus will be coming
home. The homework will be due on or before 2/13.
Reading & Language Arts: The January Log is due on or before Monday.
This coming week we’ll be focusing on text structures and non-fiction
text features. We’ll also begin our country reports. Students will
be researching the country of their heritage. If there is more than
one country/nationality, students will choose one. This will all lead
to a culture presentation later in February.
Social Science: We continue our science unit on inheritance
and traits.
Our Chapter 3 Social Studies test will take place on Wednesday.
There will be a study guide coming home today. Students should
answer the questions right on the paper (they can use the back
as well.) These study guides will be allowed on their desks during
the test. We will play a fun review game on Tuesday.
Mrs. Walega's Math Class: This week we begin Unit 5 on Multiplication,
Division, and Area. The times 8 quiz will be on Friday!
