Gonzales weekly

Welcome to another week!  This is mid-quarter, so your child's progress reports will be going home today!
This is Love of Reading Week!  We are going to have a read-in, complete with blankets, PJs, and books!  Have your child come to school tomorrow with their favorite book to read to the class and in their PJs!  If they do not wish to wear PJs, have them come in SCHOOL UNIFORM.  Anything inappropriate will have them sent to the office.  Wednesday, we will make book marks.  Thursday will be Poem in Your Pocket, which I will explain in class tomorrow.  Friday, students can come dressed as their favorite BOOK character.
In math, we will finish the first half of the Geometry unit with a test on Wednesday, then move on to area and perimeter.   Reading will include a lot of celebrating Love of Reading Week!  Writing will be drafting/editing the book report.
Science will continue to focus on biology.  We will begin a unit on the 50 States this week and should last us through the rest of the month.  This also means that there will be social studies newspapers sent home for homework.
