This shortened week will be a bit wacky for students. I am leaving on Wednesday for a vacation. Therefore, students will have a substitute teacher Wednesday through Friday.
- Students will be able to spend this week practicing skills covered in the Terra Nova for English.
- Students will be able to celebrate the conclusion of the book Charlotte's Web by watching the movie. Students will also be given class time to work on their brochures for the book. They should summarize the beginning, middle, and end of the story and include an illustration (colored) for each section. These will be due Monday, February 9th. Students will be able to take them home Friday if extra time is needed.
- In math, students will continue to learn and practice their multiplication skills. They will learn how to multiply by 3s, 4s, 1s, and 0s. They will begin taking timed multiplication tests this week. This will assist students in the memorization of multiplication facts. They will track their progress on a chart in the classroom. Flash cards at home would be a great way to prepare for these tests and to practice.
- In science, students will continue to learn about the solar system on Tuesday. However, the lesson will be put on hold until my return. We will review for chapter C3 next week. Students will take this test on Thursday, February 12th.
- Social studies will also be put on hold this week. We have completed the unit on Native Americans, and I do not want to start a new topic until I return.
