Homework: The math packet is
due on Friday. Be sure to return your math and signed
reading
log in your yellow homework folder on Friday. The timeline project is due on
Friday.
Tuesday is our early release day. Please send in a
healthy snack to have in the morning.
Scholastic Books: Do you have summer
reading ready for your child? I will be submitting our last Scholastic Book
order for the year on May 30th. You can go online to see all the books they have
available. If you would like to order books please submit them online at https://orders.scholastic.com/GVN48
Language Arts: We will be working
with ou/ow sounds in our word work. In writing we
will be reviewing the writing we have done this year and work on putting our
portfolios together. In reading we are continuing our work on summarizing.
Mathematics: We are beginning
chapter 18 on lines and surfaces. Please see the the School Home Connection for
this chapter. It is a very short chapter and we will be taking our test on
Friday.
Social Studies: We will review information we learned
about the continents. We will be taking our continent test this week. The
students have been practicing. They need to identify the oceans and continents. Here are some websites that can
help students practice. We did the lizardpoint.com site in class. It
has a good straightforward way to practice and worked on our i-pads.
Ways
you can help at home: Read and enjoy books together. Have your child tell you
a summary about what was read. Look for ou/ow words in books.
Write a summary of a book you’ve read. Look for shapes and identify curves and
parts of lines. Find solids and describe it. Does it have flat surfaces? Does
it have curve surfaces? Work on the timeline project. Have your child read
his/her timeline aloud. Practice locating the seven continents and five oceans.
Writing Journals: Please enjoy your
child’s journal and make sure it comes back for Tuesday.
Sign and return your child’s Friday Reflection.
