*English: We will begin a study of adjectives.
*Spelling: We will be back on our schedule for weekly spelling lists and assignments. Homework will be due Thurs. The test will be on Friday.
*Social Studies: We are all looking forward to learning more about each other during Culture Day. If your child wants to bring in food to share, please keep in mind the following:
1. They should share just a sample of the food item with each child (there tends to be a lot of food and the students can get too full if the portions are too large)
2. You MUST include a list of ingredients with the food items..no NUTS, please!
3. If your food needs to stay warm or cold, please email me so we can make arrangements.
Thank you!
*Science: We are learning about how matter changes states. We are looking forward to our in class field trip on 2/3 about Matter!
*Math: We will have our ch. 6 test on Monday. A study test was sent home today to practice over the week. We will begin ch. 7 Tues. as we begin to learn about division. The fact we are focusing on this week is 3's multiplication. Students must pass by Fri. 1/30. Some students are working on 9's as well or have moved onto 4's, 6's, or 7's. Please ask your child what facts they should be focusing on!
Have a great weekend!
