I'd like to thank the PTO for providing us with a wonderful lunch on Wednesday and a fabulous appetizer spread on Thursday for the cookie exchange. Also, thank you to all the parents who baked cookies and provided those wonderful appetizers for the cookie exchange. My family was thrilled with all the delicious treats I brought home.
I wish you all a wonderful holiday season – stay safe and enjoy your families; I will be enjoying mine!
Please be advised of the following important announcement from the office: as of January 4, 2010 there will be a price increase in the student hot lunch program. The price of hot lunch will be $2.50 per meal.
Coming up the week after the holiday break (Jan. 4 – Jan. 9):
Spelling: Lesson 14, more prefixes and roots/pretest Monday; test Friday.
Reading: We start a new reading skill this week, clarifying. We will start with the short story entitled Volcanoes. At the end of the week, we should be ready to begin our novel, Toliver's Secret. This novel, set during the American Revolution, ties in nicely with our current social studies unit.
Language Arts: We'll continue our verbs unit with present, past, and future tenses.
Social Studies: We will begin Chapter 8, "The Road to War," this week. There are some problems in the colonies regarding taxes. War is on the horizon. This is the start of some very exciting social studies lessons!
Science: Lesson 3 will be concluded this week and I have a tentative Chapter 6 test set for 1/13.
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:
Our plan is to start Chapter 11 this week which involves divisibility rules, finding multiples, and LCM (least common multiple.)
