Week of 10/17/11 - 10/21/11

Welcome to two new students, Danny and Diego, who joined our classroom today! We had a very short week this week; back to normal next week!! We will have Junior Achievement session 2 on Thursday. Our picture packets should arrive on Tuesday, October 18th. Our retake day is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 3rd. Enjoy the beautiful weather that continues over our area!


Coming up this week:



Spelling: Lesson 7: Pretest Monday/Practice homework due Tuesday. Workbook/Challenge work due Thursday. Test Friday.



English: We will continue Unit 5 on Capitalization and Punctuation, specifically studying commas this week.



Reading: We will work with leveled reading books this week and apply the skills we learned while reading Elena. Students will be getting vocabulary words with their books on Monday and I am planning a vocabulary quiz on Wednesday.



Social Studies: We are just about finished studying chapter 5. All notes will be checked on Tuesday and Wednesday. We will review playing “numbered heads together” on Thursday and have our test on Friday.




Science: Please check your child's binder for their chapter 5 test! We will be focusing on owl pellets this week. It's a very exciting unit and I like to study them after our ecosystems unit. Remember to ask your child about it next week!




Mrs. Klacza's Math Class: Chapter 3 is finished! We will focus on practicing division (specifically long division) with a tentative test date of Wednesday. Please make sure your child practices at home in the next few days.



Important Dates:
October 27 -- School Improvement Day/Early Dismissal
October 28 – Halloween parade and party



Have a great weekend! Mrs. Klacza
