Week of 1/21/19 - 1/25/19

We will be celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday this weekend.
This afternoon we will be watching Our Friend Martin which discusses Martin
Luther King in an understandable, relevant way.  I’m sure the students will
love it.

Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the snow!!  Don’t forget to check your
child’s grades online.  We are at the halfway mark of Trimester 2.

Coming Up Next Week:

Spelling: New words will be coming home on Tuesday along with a new
homework menu.  It will be due on or before 2/1.

Reading & Language Arts:  We’ll be reading The Matchbox Diary this week.
Also, our classroom spelling bee will be on Wednesday.

January reading logs will be due on or before February 1.

Social Science: We will continue our Science curriculum, “Amplify.”

We will also be starting a new Social Studies unit on immigration. There
will be open book/open note quizzes involved.  The first one will be on
Lesson 1 on Thursday.  This is a cross-curricular unit that lends itself
nicely to our reading block!
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:  Unit 4 will continue. We’ll be focusing on
multi-step measurement problems this week.  There will be a checkpoint
quiz on Friday (on measurement.)  Also, X4 test will be on Wednesday.

1/21 - Martin Luther King’s Birthday - day off
1/31 - Early Dismissal
2/14 - Valentine’s Day parties
2/15 - Conference Day (off)
2/18 - Presidents’ Day (off)

Have a great, 3-day weekend!
