Newsletter 11/4
Here’s the scoop for the week:
Math: M - L34 T - L35 W - Test day, worksheet for homework Th - L36 F - L37
Spelling: Lesson 9 Standard group does p. 36-38. Challenge group does p. 39 (including the writing) and the challenge worksheet (excluding the writing). Challenge students also must make a puzzle with the ten words. I know there have been some problems on Discovery Puzzle Maker. It’s also possible to make puzzles on Spelling Wizard. Try that one. Challenge words are guarantee, independent, license, occasion, acquire plus the five on p. 39
Social Studies: State Project Each student has been assigned a state from the Southeast region to report on. They must find information for a fill-in-the-blank type worksheet. They must also make a poster. The poster must include the name of the state, an outline map with the capital and major cities plus major bodies of water. It also must include the state flower, tree, flag, and bird. We started them in school today, so most have a good beginning. Some work may have to be done at home. I have posted many internet sites that would be helpful on my delicious site. Projects will be due sometime next week. I’ll post the exact date.
Green and White Day: This Thursday
Report Cards: Come home this Thursday
Rake-a-thon: Friday is a pledge turn in day.
Service Project: Please send in cereal. See separate post for details.
Have a good week.
PS Homework is always open to change depending on circumstances.
