Because of the two short weeks, we will not have new vocabulary words for the next two weeks. Students should be practicing their October poems, which we will begin reciting for the class next Wednesday.
The students are all doing very well with multiplying decimals by whole numbers, and we will begin dividing decimals by whole numbers on Wednesday. We began reading “A Wrinkle in Time” today, which is not only our next whole group book study, but a Battle of the Books book as well. Mrs. Smith, our librarian, has returned from an extended medical leave, and plans to talk with the students more next week about the Battle of the Books.
The opinion essays the students have been working on are due Wednesday, and they will take their States and Capitals test on Wednesday as well.
Have a wonderful week!
