This Week


  • We are approaching the LAST week of second trimester!  Time certainly does fly when your working hard and having fun.  New snack cart and milk/juice forms went home this week and will be due next Friday.  We will also be celebrating the end of the trimester on Friday with our second White Elephant Auction!!  Students must have their permission slips signed in order to participate.  Second trimester grades will be entered in the next couple of weeks and report cards will be coming home the week of March 11th.
  • Here is what our week is looking like...
  • Grammar/Writing:  In grammar we will be working on transitions and how to use a dictionary for multiple purposes.  In writing we will be looking at some poetry and looking at different patterns and language usage.

  • Reading: Our main reading skills for the week are persuasion and making inferences.  Your students did get a reading log today which will be due next Friday.  Reading logs will be looking a little different for 3rd trimester so please watch for the directions to come home next week.  The last day for students to earn points towards their AR goal is FRIDAY!  Final plans for our AR reward will be announced soon. 
Math: On Monday, we will review for the Unit Seven Math Test. On Tuesday, we will take the Unit Seven Math test.  Please practice your division facts and long division in preparation for the test.  Good luck!
