Good Morning Families,
This is a very short week for us as we have 2 half days and no school on Friday and no school the following Monday. Enjoy your Fall Break!
Please remember that both Wednesday and Thursday this week are half days with dismissal at 1:15 to accommodate Parent-Teacher Conferences. Please send a good, hearty snack both days.
Thank you all so much for taking time out of your day to meet with us. We are grateful for your partnership in your child's educational and spiritual development.
English Language Arts
There will NOT be a spelling or reading test this week. We will work with Lesson 7 for the next two weeks.
Grammar: We will be reviewing verbs and verb tenses.
Reading: We will work on the skill of Fact vs. Opinion. We will be discussing the importance of going back into the text to look for evidence. (Information Text)
Writing: Last week, students finished their states reports. They will take what they learned from their fact recording sheet and final draft to write our 6 facts, which will be included in their State in a Bag Report.
Social Studies
Last week, students were given directions for the State in a Bag Project. This week, students will have 2 days to work on the project in class. I have many supplies for students to create their bag. However, I am asking for each student to bring a paper bag or gift bag that can be decorated. Any questions please feel free to email me. The project is due Friday, October 20th and oral presentations will begin Monday, October 23rd.
On Thursday, October 12th students will be assessed on BOTH the states and capitals in the Southeast Region.
