Homework and Happenings

Report cards go home on Friday!  

Reading logs are due on Monday.  Be sure to add up your minutes and include your first and last name.


Math  -

  • Finish homework worksheet if not finished in class - make sure you have a model for each problem.  The links to the instructional videos we viewed in class are below.  Be sure to watch again if you have any trouble with your homework.  
  • Our test is tentatively scheduled for Friday, 1/17.





Word Study

  • No word study this week!!!  
  • The children will get the word list and definitions for next week on Friday so that they can get an early start for next week.  Because of our in-school field trip next week on Friday, 1/17, we will move the master the meaning to Wednesday and spelling/dictation to Thursday.  


    Science (Morand's Class)

    • Sum of Parts Test - Tuesday, 1/14 - Begin studying notes!
    • I am once again asking for your help with some items for science activities and experiments.  We'll be making pancakes to illustrate a chemical OR physical change (Do you know which it is?), trail mix and kool-aid to illustrate mixtures and solutions.  I'm asking each family to help with one item or a $3 donation, if possible.  If not, please just let me know and I'll make other plans.  I appreciate your help!  Letters with the item requested went home yesterday!  In addition, we are going to need color comic strips from the newspaper or comic books.  If you get the Sunday paper and could send in the comic section, we'd appreciate it!!!
