Week of 4/27/09 - 5/1/09

After a chilly start to the week, it looks like Spring has finally arrived in full force!
Let's all try to keep our “spring fever” in check and continue to learn, study, and do well as the year winds down. I hope to see some parents tonight at “Kicks on 66” at the Cornerstone. It should be a great event! Also, I'd like to make a last pitch for family reading night next Wednesday evening.

Coming up this week:

Mrs. Klacza's Reading Class:

Spelling: Lesson 29: Compound words - Test on Friday.

Reading: We continue reading our novel Night of the Twisters. Our book clubs have been a big success. A book project will be started at the end of the week and we will conclude the unit by watching the movie on 5/4. We will then compare and contrast the novel and the movie.

Language Arts: The chapter 6 test on Pronouns will occur on Wednesday. We will review before the test. Then we will be on to Adverbs!! We'll meet Lolly...

Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:

We continue Chapter 22 and all forms of measurement. Students should be prepared for an exam the week of 5/4.

Mrs. Klacza's Homeroom:

Social Studies: The chapter entitled “The Young U.S.” will be concluded this week. Monday we'll read about the War of 1812 and take some notes. We'll review on Wednesday and take the test on Thursday.

Science: After an open book assessment on Tuesday, we will start the study of oceans later in the week.

Have a great weekend! Mrs. Klacza
