Feb. 15, 2016

Welcome back!  I'm happy to hear everyone had a good, safe Chinese New Year break.

There are now only 3 weeks left until Q3 exams, and plenty of work to do before then.

This morning we discussed some of the things that occurred over the Chinese New Year holiday, and then reviewed the branches of government. We then learned about some duties that the President has.

In Math, we learned different ways to divide by 3.

The students completed the final preparations needed to begin the full Daily 5 program tomorrow. Please read the letter your child brought home today regarding the Daily 5.

ECA - taking care of odds and ends, including hanging up our conservation posters around the academic building.

HOMEWORK:
1) Math p. 75
2) Social Studies p. 24-25 (can be handed in anytime from now until Thursday). This was supposed to be the homework over the break, but I wrote down the wrong pages, I apologize for any confusion.
3) Reading Logs - let's get 10-20 minutes of reading done tonight and write it in your Reading Log. This week's reading log will again start counting toward a weekly mark for Reading and Spelling.

NEW SPELLING WORDS:
tulip, inhale, blouse, apology, nectarine, suspenders, Tuesday, champion, raisin, power, melody, minnow, trumpet, April, twelve, weather

IMPORTANT NOTICES

  • Reading quiz on Wednesday on the Journeys story, "Jump." Please study the key vocabulary words and be prepared to answer comprehension questions.
  • Please read the letter regarding the Daily 5 that was sent home today.
  • information regarding the Science Fair will be coming out very soon. The Science Fair will be held on April 28-29. Start thinking about ideas, or partners to work with are convenient to meet with after school.
Have a great evening.

Mr. Y
