Unit Focus:
Spelling: Spelling Unit 15
word preview came home today with five bonus vocabulary words from our government unit. Spelling test will be next Friday. Please help your child study his/her words nightly.
Math: We finished the fractions/decimal unit today. Everyone did a wonderful job on the post test (we even had 4 perfect tests). Way to go class! Our next math unit will be Geometry. We also continue to work on strategies to solve word problems. Ask your child about the Super Seven.
Social Studies: We continue studying government, working on Chapter 7 in our Social Studies book. Look for the Chapter 6 & 7 study guide to come home next week.
Reading: Please have your child bring in a book (any book on their level) that they wish to read for our reading workshop time. This book will need to travel back and forth from school and home daily. We will use this book during class time and students will be responsible for reading at least 20 minutes at home each night. Please spend some time each night asking questions about the current book your child is reading. The who, what, where, and how questions will help your child retell the story and help him/her with their comprehension. Great preparation for the CRCT (only 2 ½ months away).
Writing: Our third quarter writing focus is Informative Writing. Home-project for this focus was sent home last week.
The career interview projects are due March 1st. Please make sure to keep all instructions in a safe place :o)
