This week in learning:

FLA: REading chapters 3,4 and 5 and working on vocabulary. If students are absent when we work on vocabulary, the words are on this BLOG. Letters from the main character should have already been sent to  my Learn account. If not, make sure that it is done.

ELA: finishing with Reader's Theater and then moving onto a research project which will coincide with Social Studies. It will be on a Greek god. The purpose of this research is to just that...Research....good research and good websites and taking out the right information. Most students take the easy road and just take things from Wikipedia...not ok! They need to delve deeper and "I can't find the information" is not an excuse. 

SOCIAL: Test chapter 2 tomorrow. Beginning Chapter 3 Ancient Greece this week.

Religion: Working on our Social Justice project and Advent is around the corner. We will be looking at covenants, which are promises made between people.

MATH: tests went home last week and should be signed and returned. Working on the unit on decimals. Students need to be conscientious enough to ask for extra one on one help if they need it. When I ask, they say they get it, and the tests show otherwise. I don't bite!

MUSIC: Christmas concert

ART: acrylic and watercolor painting
