11/24-11/25

We have a short week coming with just two days of school.  Please enjoy the time with your families and celebrating the Thanksgiving holiday if your family does so.

Here is what our super short week will be filled with...

Language Arts:

New reading logs went home today and will be due on Tuesday with only 80 minutes.

Between Krupa's and Bakke's homerooms, 85% of students have already made their 1st trimester reading goal!  Congratulations to each of them and their success on reaching this challenge.  The deadline for turning in completed responses is Monday.  Tuesday, we will be holding our 1st trimester reading reward party for all those who earned it!

Writing: We will be working hard on completing their I Survived story final drafts.  Watch for these to come home in their report cards!

Word Study: Word study will resume again after the long weekend, however, we are going to try out a change in the schedule.  We will be getting new words and testing for the previous week every THURSDAY from now on.  This will allow for more time to practice and master each of the patterns.  We will continue to have two lists going to better meet the needs of all of our learners.

Math:

Signed study guides are due on Monday.  They will be taking the unit test next week.

Social Studies:

Students will be testing on the western region of the United States.  Please practice over the weekend!
