As we quickly move through the second trimester, I'd like to remind you all to check out your child's grades on line. There is still time to boost some of those grades that may not be as good as they were a few weeks ago...
Soon it will be Valentine's Day and we'll be celebrating on Friday! The class list for valentines went home this week. We will be enjoying a wonderful party; a note from the office reminds us that we can only have water as our party drink. The small bottles would be perfect! We will also be having a “great behavior” party on Tuesday with healthy snacks and a movie. Do you think we can fill the marble jar again before fifth grade is over? We'll see...
Coming up this week:
Spelling: Lesson 20 -ary words. Pretest Monday/Final test Friday.
Reading: We continue connecting using our basal readers and will have an open book quiz on Monday on the story Katie's Trunk. We will then move on to James Forten, another story occurring during the American Revolution.
Language Arts: Test Tuesday on Verbs!! Then on to Expository writing.
Social Studies: I've seen some wonderful webquest projects, wow! I'm impressed!! We will work on a “letters home” activity this week (pretending we are colonists writing to our relatives back home in England.)
Science: There will be an open note/book assessment on lesson 1 on Tuesday. We will then move on to the water cycle and clouds and precipitation.
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:
We will move on to Chapter 18 this week which covers geometry. Of course, ISAT practice will be mixed in to make life interesting!!
Important Notes:
2/11 – Family Book Night
2/12 – Valentine's Day celebration (end of day)
2/15 – President's Day – no school
Have a great weekend! Mrs. Klacza
