Gonzales Weekly

04/30/12

Welcome to the last three weeks of school!  We are finally in May this week!

I am still in need of mechanical pencils and mechanical pencil lead.  If you have any extra supplies, it would be greatly appreciated.

We had a BLAST at the Pima County Fair last week!  Everyone was well behaved and did a fantastic job modeling how La Paloma students should act!

Progress reports come out today!  I ask that you please sign the “spelling” page and send it back with your child.  I will mark them off and then will send the paper back with them for your safekeeping.  If you have any questions, please feel free to email me with any questions.  I will be taking Thursday, Friday, and Monday off, so email will be the best way to get a hold of me.

In math, we will continue reviewing concepts learned this past year, including but not limited to equations and order of operations.  We are still reading Esperanza Rising and will do many more activities as we read.  Make sure to ask your child about the Great Depression!  In social studies, we will begin our state report.  Make sure that your child is studying the location of each state, as there will be a test in about two weeks.
