This week in room 35...

Today was our school wide Spelling Bee. Morgan and Josiah did a wonderful job representing our class! We enjoyed cheering them on!

Here is what we are working on in class:

Math- We are finishing up our division chapter and are starting on Geometry.  Geometry is a change of pace from multiplication and division. The students usually enjoy this chapter and  the different projects we do.

Reading- We are continuing to work in our reading groups reading a variety of writing- fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and articles. As we move forward we are going to focus on finding evidence from the reading in our reading responses. Continue to encourage your child to read at home each evening. They are doing a terrific job!

Writing- We are finishing our persuasive essays and will be moving on to our Expository writing unit. Students will be creating a book over different topics.

Social Studies- We are learning about Slavery in Missouri and the Underground Railroad.

Science- Our next Science unit will begin in a few weeks. We will be learning about electricity.

Other details:

  • Just a reminder there is no school on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. 
  • Book orders are due next Wednesday.  If you would like to order online click on the picture below.

 Have a great weekend!
