I hope that everyone enjoyed a nice weekend, and that all mothers had a wonderful Mother's Day.
This week in Math, we will continue our work on Common Core Math concepts. On Monday, students will add fractions with denominators of 10 and 100. Tuesday, we will look at decimals and Wednesday we will compare them. On Thursday, students will work on problem solving using line plots. Friday, we will add and subtract angle measurements. All of these lessons come from a resources that we copy. To help the students complete the lessons, I have asked them to be sure to keep their copied lesson packet with them. This should help with homework.
In English Language Arts, students will present their Famous Missourians to the class. We will present on Monday and Tuesday of this week. On Wednesday, we will begin "Fractured Fairy Tales". Students will be introduced to a fairy tale and work on presenting a small skit the following week. We hope to be ready to present to audiences on Tuesday and/or Wednesday of next week. We will keep you posted on day dates. You are welcome to attend!
In Reading, students will have a "Coffee Shop" -like read of their poetry on Tuesday, and possibly Wednesday. We will spend extra time throughout the rest of the week to work on our Fairy Tale plays. On Friday, we will have a Reading Marathon.
We have NWEA testing on the computers Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. We will test from 1:30-2:10. Please try to ensure your child is here, if at all possible. Our time for "make-up" tests is running short.
Also, ALL LIBRARY BOOKS ARE DUE ON FRIDAY, MAY 17. Please check to make sure your child has all books turned in. This is also the last day for AR points.
Time has sure flown by....
