Welcome Back!

I hope everyone had a delightful weekend! We're back to our normal routine!

LA: Today we started the story, My Brother Martin. We had an amazing discussion about segregation and the Civil Rights Movement. This week we are discussing more about author's purpose and also prefixes. Our spelling words this week contain silent letters, which proved pretty tricky on our pre-test. Be sure to study those words! We didn't have Computer Lab today due to Map testing, and we won't have it again next week either. We made time for a writing marathon today in addition to starting a new read aloud!

HW: Fluency and flow is due Friday, as well as all the assessments. Don't forget that we have our Reading MAP testing Wednesday morning first thing. The reading project due date is right around the corner...due next Friday!

Math: We spent a lot of time on powers of 10 and exponents today in class. Many of us struggle with remembering to multiply instead of add when finding solutions! Review of this at home would be super helpful!

HW: Exponent sheet is due tomorrow!

Health: Today we reviewed for the Chapter 3 test which will be given tomorrow, our last day of this Health rotation!

HW: Finish Chapter 3 review and study for the test.

Don't Forget:
Doughnuts with Dad is Friday!
Mini-Mall papers are due soon...make sure you are coming up with a plan!
