Oct. 11-14

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend, the weather itself was enough to be thankful for!

 I posted on Friday that the Math test will be separated into 2 parts. For Grade 4's the Prism section today and the Nelson test Friday. For Grade 5's, both sections on Friday.

This week in Language: Grade 4 pages 14-16

                                    Grade 5 pages 12-14
Sign Language test
Spelling Lesson #3 due Monday October 17, 2011

Math: Prism pages

          Multiplication and Division quiz Wednesday

          Tests must be corrected! 3 times for each incorrect problem as well as    the ones that were incomplete. The yellow correction copybook should be signed so I know you are aware of the test scores. I see improvement already in the scores, keep it up J

Scholastic will be due Wednesday.

Grade 4’s:

Since we are reading Charlotte’s web in class, I want each student to find 5 interesting pig facts and five interesting spider facts and type them out on the computer. We will add those to an information poster in class. Bring them in when you are ready, Monday at the latest J

Grade 5’s:

Since we are reading the Mystery novel Mudshark, I would like each student to look into a real life unsolved mystery that intrigues them. Ex: Is there really a lost city of Atlantis? How were the pyramids built? Etc… Look at the site: http://www.kidsgen.com/unsolved_mysteries  for some other ideas or search Unsolved Mysteries for Kids with your parents. Read through a few of them before deciding what you like and bring in your idea with a few sheets that you copied from the internet. Due Monday October 17, 2011. We will use them, for an in-class project.

Let’s have a great week!
