Week of November 5

End of the trimester is coming up at the end of the month.
I encourage you to check grades periodically online.


Heads Up -
  • Ch. 6 Social Studies study guide will be going home on Thursday, Nov. 8th.
The study guide will be due on Monday, as the test is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 14th.
  • Also, Math Checkpoint Quiz on next Monday, Nov. 12th and Test on Tuesday, Nov. 13th.


Language Arts
We will continue wrapping up ISAT Unit 1 this week. I will continue reading a lot of examples of homonyms, homophones, analogies, and idioms through a variety of books. Ask your child about what was their favorite. They will be tested on Unit on Wednesday, Nov. 7th. On Thursday we will begin Unit 3 – Verbs. We will be starting with action verbs. Next week, I will be asking your child to bring in three pictures that represent verbs, in particular action verbs.


Math
In math we will be wrapping up with Chapter 3, graphing, at the end of this week. Your child will be taking thorough notes in class to assist with homework and will be receiving homework each night. These notes should further assist in studying for the test. We will be reviewing the second half of the chapter the beginning of next week. Page 118-119 should be good pages to help your child study. It looks like there will be a test on Chapter 3 on Tuesday. Please check assignment notebook daily.
