Update 1/7/2015

Parents,

Sorry about missing to update the blog yesterday. They did not have math homework last night due to having the topic 6 math test with the exception of the reading log.

Tonight they have one last review sheet on algebra (double sided). They have their reading log.

In language arts, the students are reading about Louis and Clark while analyzing character development. They will be working on editing paragraphs as their grammar skill. In social studies, they are studying historical events. In science, we are finishing up our electricity unit by completing a STEAM project where students are building an electrical alarm. In math, we finished algebra as you already know and will be starting topic 7 - Multiplying by 2-Digit Numbers.

We are also encouraging students to go onto IXL to practice their math skills. The students know their username and password to log in. This is a great site that our school has adopted to have students practice their math skills that they are learning in class. This is not a requirement but we would like to see students complete an hour of IXL practice a week. Every time a student completes four hours of IXL, she will be rewarded with a prize. I thank you for assisting them in completing the practice.
