Curriculum Updates


  • ELA
    • Next week we will have NO spelling contract or spelling words.  
    • We are reading novels in both groups, so we will spend time using our HOTS to delve deeper into the novels.  Kids may have reading homework instead.  
    • Our Hero powerpoints will be completed on Monday!  
  • Math
    • Please practice area this weekend if necessary - a few students need to retest - remember that area is an array, so we are multiplying length times width. 
    • We will test on Wednesday, then complete a performance task on Thursday and Friday.  
      • Please make sure your child has not lost their study guide (we've been working a few a day to help them prepare over time vs. "cramming") 
        • See last Friday's post for the study guide
      • We are also using the pretest to help us prepare
  • SS
    • We began FDR today.  We will test on Friday.  The kids already have the study guide (as well as the answers - but we will still discuss and fill in the blank study guide.)
      • See last Friday's post for the study guide
Book fair:  we will browse Tuesday from 10-10:15 and shop on Wednesday from 9:30-10:00.  Your child will go with their ELA teacher.
