WEEK OF NOVEMBER 5-9th

CLASS UPDATE
A huge thank you goes out to all of the parents who came to class and shared their college and career experience with our class. It was so fascinating to hear your stories and such diversity of vocations and colleges. This is the highest level of parent involvement I've had in my 20+ years of teaching so hats off to you!

This week we will be having Parent Teacher Conferences all week. PLEASE be on time so it doesn't impact others because many parents have multiple conferences to attend. See schedule below. I appreciated your efforts in completing the Parent Feedback forms and checklist. This will inform our conference.

In reading we will be wrapping up Westing Game this week with Lit Circles. Our Accelerated Reader Goal is due this Friday, November 9th (Our last day of the trimester). Also, each student selected their Book Projects for the 2nd Trimester. These will be due on Wednesday, December 5th.

In writing our class has started our Informational Writing Unit. Please look in the grade book to see your child's grade and feedback from the narrative writing final draft.

In Math we are slowing down to understand more fully the Distributive Property of multiplication.
(3.4)

In Science we will be sharing our Environmental speeches/slide show on Tuesday through Thursday. Students will be given less homework to practice their speech.

Let me know if you have any questions.
