Hello! Welcome back after a week long snow in! Let's get back into the swing of things! Here's what's going on...
Reading: Before the snow, we finished up reading the story "Katie's Trunk". The selection test grades will be in "Thursday Folders" this week. We will be starting our next story: "James Forten". During the story, we will be working with K-W-L charts, following directions, comprehension, and prefixes. Hopefully by the week's end we will be testing on the selection and finishing up Theme 3: Voices of the Revolution.
Math: Students will be completing the Chapter 5 Test on: Graphing. We will be starting fractions, chapter 7. This will be a brief introduction, and then we will be heading into geometry in order to prepare students for the March DSTP. Fluency will still be done, so keep helping your child study at home.
Writing: Even though we have had a lot of snow, students will be tested on the current list of words "Person to Person: Reading Writing Workshop" words on Wednesday, February 17. We will also be reviewing previous grammar lessons, then moving on to synonyms, antonyms, and adjectives.
If there is anything that is needed in the upcoming days, please let me know. I am sure that with the snow days, we will be playing "catch-up" for a little while. We are still on for the field trip to the DSU Theater on February 24. ***If you were interested in attending, parents need to pay the $9.00 for a seat. If you do not pay, you can not attend.
Feel free to email me of there is anything you need!
~Take Care!
Mrs. Cobble
