Good Evening,
This week has flown by! Today in music class we combined all of the 4th graders to practice our songs for VIP and we were really impressed with their singing abilities- they are going to be great!
This week in...
Reading: Today we had our test on The Bunyans. We spent a lot of time discussing figurative language and will continue to do so. For the rest of this week we are going to begin our vocabulary and background knowledge for our last story in the textbook John Muir.
Spelling: Lesson 28 this week!
Religion: The students need to finish their cards for Father John. We will have our Pastor Appreciation Mass this coming Tuesday. Cards are due on Friday. We also are continuing to learn about Virtues- Charity and Hope in Chapter 8
4th LA:
5th LA:
4th SS: We are officially on the West! We have begun reading Chapter 12 in our textbooks. For Chapter 12 there will be NO vocabulary due but the students saw that there is a suggested list of 11 words to know for our test. We discussed many ways that the students could study these words. We came to the conclusion that just because we are not getting a grade for writing out the vocabulary words doesn't mean that we can't do that- it is still a great way to study! Our Chapter 12 test will either be late next week or very early the week after next. Our Southwest Letters and Scrapbook pages are due Thursday, April 23rd.
5th SS: We are in lesson 3 of Chapter 10. We have taken a lot of notes and completed a graphic organizer on the three branches of government. Our Chapter 10 test will probably be Tuesday/Wednesday or Wednesday/Thursday of next week.
