Monday, January 30

Interesting Fact of the Day: There are more than 50,000 earthquakes throughout the world every year.

I can't believe January is coming to a close.  Don't forget that the I Love To Read Challenge begins on Wednesday!  I'm very excited!!!!

LA: Due to Science Expo presentations this morning, we had a short time to get a lot done!  :)  We took our spelling pretest and then moved on to grammar, where we are learning about subject and object pronouns.  Many of us need to review regular pronouns before moving on...try to discuss tonight!  The rest of the morning was spent on presentations, where we are all enjoying listening to one another's experiments and outcomes.

HW: Don't forget we will be going on our field trip on Friday morning.  Letters went home to chaperones today.

Math: We're just about to finish up unit 8...taking some time to review positive and negative numbers today.  Many of us don't even need to us to use the counters that we made anymore...hooray!

HW: Finish journal pages 237-239 if you and your partner did not finish.  Don't forget to do #9 and 10 on 240...in addition to math boxes and study links 7.9

Social Studies: (Woods) We finished up reading chapter 8 today.  We've had a great time learning about slaves and the difficulties they were faced with.

HW: Finish ISNB page 39 if you didn't complete it in class.  Test over chapter 8 on Wednesday.
