Update for Week of 5/11/15

THANK YOU for everything you did to make last week special. I was blown away by your generosity, sweet notes, and kind gestures. I am going to miss this group so much! Here is what we have on the agenda for this week:

In math, students will be looking at their last report cards and setting goals for the final three weeks of school. I will encourage them to work on the standards for which they got 1s or 2s first. They will work towards a 3. Beyond that, students may identify areas in which they got 3s and try for 4s. Please feel free to talk about it with your child and help him or her set goals.

In science, most of our experiments are well under way! Most students have brought in materials or have asked me to help them collect materials. Please let me know if you have questions or need help with anything! Thank you for supporting them with these unique experiments!

In reading,
we are continuing with our read aloud of The Hope Chest.

In writing, the students are prewriting for their final piece of the year! This will be a multimedia project where they teach other students from around the world about their personal beliefs.

In social studies, we are identifying the elements of a personal budget and explaining why personal spending and saving decisions are important.

Please continue to bring in fabric markers. We have PLENTY of white t-shirts! :)
