Week of 11/21/11 - 11/25/11



We will be visiting the Robert Crown Center on Tuesday morning for the Michael & Linda program. It was great seeing so many of you at the parents' night Monday. Please send a lunch from home on Tuesday for your child; we won't be getting back until 11:30 or so. We will also be having our marble party for good behavior that day. Congratulations students!!


Our “Dig into a Good Book” program will be starting for the second trimester this week. Completed contracts with new goals should be coming back to me on Monday. Please discuss this goal with your child. They know what they can do and should “up” their first trimester goal by at least one book. There will be new activities in lieu of the classic book report form this trimester.


Coming up this week:


Spelling:
Since we are only here for two days, there will be no spelling this week.


English: We will continue chapter 2, Nouns, specifically singular and possessive nouns.


Reading: Students will work on their individual book projects for Crash or Kid in the Red Jacket this week.


Social Studies: Since we just finished chapter 6, we will take a couple days off and start chapter 7 the week of 11/28.


Science: Please be prepared for the chapter 6 test on Monday.


Mrs. Klacza's Math Class: Since we only have one day of math this week, we'll do some problem solving and extended response problems. Perimeter starts the following week!
