This is a chance for volunteers (who have been fingerprinted) to come in and
listen to a group of students read and then ask some prepared questions.
Academics this week:
We will start Prince
Caspian on Monday. Please make sure your child brings in the book that has
the same cover as the one shown in the Current Literature section of this blog.
We will continue studying adjectives and classifying and diagramming sentences
with them. The poem "The Violet" will be presented Friday, October
6th.
In math this
week, we are wrapping up our study of the operations of whole numbers. We spent
Friday reviewing these concepts and will continue to review in class on Monday.
We will have a test on Tuesday (9/26). Our next topic of study, coming
at the end of the week, is fractions!
In geology, we
will continue studying earthquakes and begin tsunamis. There will be an assessment
on these 2 subjects early next week (Oct. 2nd). The study guide will be
handed out this week.
In history
this week we will have a history test on Friday 9/29. The test will
cover the Fall of Rome and the rise of Christianity. Study guides will be
handed out on Monday and will be filled in throughout the week. Our focus
this week is the study of the rise of the Christian Church after the Fall of
Rome. We will explore the life of monks, the importance of monasteries and the
missionaries who spread the religion throughout Europe.
