Sorry for the late post!  There were several technical glitches that caused this post to be so late!

We have a four-day week and then a two-day week!  There IS a spelling list this week but there will not be a list next week.

Progress reports came out today.  Please sign and turn them in by Friday.  If your child turns it in tomorrow (Wednesday) they get five extra credit points towards their lowest subject!  Again, if you have any questions, please feel free to email or call.

Remember that fifth grade is responsible for buying turkeys!  Albertsons has graciously offered to cook the turkeys for us.  We are asking every student to bring in $1 for the cost.  Many of you have already done this!  Thanks!

This week, we will continue to relate fractions, decimals, and percents.  There will be a test on Monday on this topic.  In reading, we will do several activities with Esperanza Rising.  We are nearly done with the book!  In writing, we are starting to learn about adjectives.  In social studies, we will cover several taxation laws that happened before the American Revolution, as well as the Boston Massacre.

Spelling list for the week:

1.       equal

2.                   collect

3.                   perhaps

4.                   rapid

5.                   arrive

6.                   shoulder

7.                   sorrow
