I hope everyone is staying dry today!
Today, progress reports went out. I expect students to have them
signed by Thursday morning. If they are not, your child will be assigned an
afterschool detention. I make it very easy for students to pass my classes.
They simply need to complete their work, both at home and in class. If your
child has a D or an F, it is because they are not turning in their work.
A lot of students did not turn in their research notes for their
project. They can turn it in for half credit. Rough drafts for the Explorations,
Early Years, and map pages are due on Friday.
This week in math, we will be multiplying and dividing decimals.
In reading, we will finish Maniac Magee. In writing, we will write an acrostic
and Clarihew poem. In social studies, we will wrap up our explorers unit with
cause and effect. There will be a test next week!
Spelling words:
1. staff
2. slept
3. bunch
4. stuck
5. swift
6. breath
7. tough
