This week in learning:

There has been a change in the Dry Land training. It is tomorrow from 9-11a.m. and not on Friday. Please come to school dressed comfortably to perform. in the afternoon, we have a Celtic presentation that will last the afternoon.

Because of this, the religion test will be moved to Thursday. 

FLA: reading comprehension test. With all the disruptions this week, I will let the students know of the date. It is nothing they can prepare for, other than daily reading.

ELA: finishing poetry unit with a quatrain or song, plus a booklet of best poems.

MATH: we will be finishing the angles unit this week and a test will be forthcoming next week, probably near the end of the week. Right now we are working on quadrilaterals and the fact that the sum of their angles is 360 degrees. Unit test March 2nd.

Social: How the Iroquois made their decisions and how problems were solved. Unit test March 14th.

ART: spirit animals will be due at the end of this week.

Religion: We are playing LENTOPOLY and studying the Beatitudes. Later this week, we will examine Lent and how we can become better people through this journey. Not everyone is giving up something for Lent, however I would ask students to make a conscious effort to not incude sweets in their lunches and snacks, mostly the candy and chocolate that I frequently see. Thank you for your cooperation.
