Update 11/3/2014

Happy Monday Parents,

Students will be working on complete sentences for their grammar skill. Their spelling words involve adding -s and -es to the end of words to make it plural. Students have to be aware that some words that end with "y" will be changed to "i" and will add "es." Some words will just add "s" while others such as words that end with "ch" will end with "es."

For reading, students will be working on Native American themed novel studies with the literature circle format. The following are their spelling words for the week: monkeys, friends, plays, supplies, taxes, holidays, months, companies, costumes, sandwiches, hobbies, daisies, delays, scratches, counties, teammates, memories, bunches, batteries, donkeys  CHALLENGE: eyelashes, ambulances, trophies, secretaries, inventories

For math we will be testing on topic 3 this Thursday on multiplication. In science, we are doing a STEAM project this week. I am asking students if they have an extra cardboard juice or half gallon milk container to bring in by Wednesday.
They have a problem solving sheet to complete for homework tonight. They will get review, "reteach" out of the math book tomorrow in which they will have two days to complete. They also have their reading log to complete this week.

Reminder that parent teacher conferences are this Friday.

Have a great week.
