We had a wonderful time at Naper Settlement. I'd like to thank Sophia's mom, Matthew's mom, and Julianna's aunt for chaperoning in the cold! Did you ask your child about it? Geospace will be our next field trip, here at school.Have a terrific spring break. Let's hope the weather cooperates!
Coming up this week:
Mrs. Klacza's Reading Class:
This week we will start the novel Toliver's Secret and use some important reading skills as we read, particularly drawing conclusions, inferring, identifying author's viewpoint, and cause and effect. Toliver's Secret is a terrific, action-packed, historical fiction novel set during the Revolutionary War.
Spelling: We will not have a spelling lesson this week due to Geospace. We've had to shift our schedules around a bit to accommodate all of our classes.
English: We will be returning to our textbooks this week as we start the pronoun chapter, unit 6.
Social Studies: We continue chapter 10 by creating an “Important Book” on lesson 3 (“Ratifying the Constitution.”) We will do quite a bit of reviewing before our test on Friday.
Science: We will start the study of weather (chapter 11) later this week.
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:
This week we will continue fractions, chapter 12. Mixed numbers will be explored a little more thoroughly before our quiz on lessons 1-4, tentatively set for Wednesday. The quiz will cover equivalent fractions, simplest form, mixed numbers, and improper fractions.
Important Dates:
March 25 – Spring break begins at the end of the day
April 4 – Back to school
April 5 – Teachers' Institute (no school)
April 7 – Geospace from 12:00-2:00 (Klacza's class)
Have a wonderful week! Mrs. Klacza
