Gonzales Weekly

Gonzales Weekly
12/02/13

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Break!

We have just three weeks left until the end of the quarter, and two until second quarter grades are final! I strongly encourage you to use Family Link to make sure your child doesn't have any missing assignments.

Starting this week, I am trying a new policy that has worked well for students in the past. In addition to my regular homework, any work that your child does not get done in class will have to be done at home. Influencing my decision is multiple groups choosing to talk and not get their work done. This will only affect the students that are not being productive, as the majority of the class is getting their work completed.

This week, we will read Chapters 12-14 in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. In math, we will finish our unit on dividing with decimals, and begin a unit on adding and subtracting fractions. In social studies, we will read through a Scholastic Weekly magazine, and in science, we will review the nervous system and the respiratory system.

Spelling words this week:
1) create
2) quiet
3) cruel
4) liar
5) actual
6) ruin
7) trial
8) rodeo
9) science
10) usual
11) appreciate
12) variety
13) enthusiastic
14) realize
15) eventually
Challenge Words
16) ominous
17) occurred
18) obscure
19) obeyed
20) opportunity

Have a great week!
