Here are the class updates and announcements for 12/10 and a little for 12/17:
*The math quiz taken today has been given to the students. They should be signed and returned by Monday, 12/10.
Reading- We have finished our research on our animals and our projects are currently on display in the hallway. The kiddos did a great job! We are going to recap what we learned about animal defenses. We are going to spend the next couple of weeks really diving into identifying an author's purpose for writing text, main idea, and inferencing.
Writing- We are continue to discuss persuasive writing. You will probably here the students reference using OREO for writing. O.R.E.O. stands for state your OPINION, provide REASONS, support with EXAMPLES/EVIDENCE, and restate your OPINION. We will also discuss ALL parts of speech and how to identify complete sentences.
Math- We are going to continue to work on multiplication as we dive into division. Please continue to work with your children on multiplication fact fluency.
Social Studies- The American Revolution and Declaration of Independence are coming to a close. Students now have interactive social studies notebooks and I will begin doing note checks once a week.
From the Desk of Mr. Mathews
Parents, the science test is moved to Thursday December 13,
2018. It’s been moved because, we are a little behind on content, due to a mini
STEM challenge that we are completing in class. If you have any questions,
please let me know. Have a restful evening.
Ronnell Mathews Ed.S
Assessments: Social Studies will be on Monday, 12/17 for my homeroom and 12/18 for Mr. Mathews class. Please note that there may be another assessment in ELA before the end of this year. I will keep you abreast of any changes.
Announcements
Our class holiday celebration will be held on 12/19 from 10-11:15am. Please see Mrs. Bickford's email regarding details.
