Week of October 7th

Happy Short Week of School!

This week in...

Reading:  No story this week.  Instead we will be reading the chapter book Frindle by Andrew Clements to get ready for our play that we will be seeing.  This is a great story that discusses perseverance and asks the question, "When should you stand up for something you believe in?" We had great conversations today about that and the students did a nice job relating it to Martin Luther King Jr. - Such a great conversation!!!

Spelling:  Going back to week 6- review lesson.  Workbook and test on Wednesday

Religion:  Moses and the Ten Commandments

4th SS:  Northeast Train Tour- I am looking for some volunteers to come in next week for both 4th grade classes to help with a demonstration- It's not hard I promise I just need some extra hands!!  It would be on Tuesday from 10:50-11:30 and 11:30 to 12:10.  If you could volunteer for both times or just one please let me know by email.  Also I am looking for a few rolls of aluminum foil- could you please send with your student?  Thank you!!!

4th LA: Nouns!

5th SS:  Chapter 3 Lesson 3.  There will be a review day next Tuesday and test on Wednesday and Thursday of next week for chapter 3
