Thanks for the Books
I would like to thank the DeBow, Schmidt, and Ivanova families for purchasing gift certificates at the Prairieview Book Fair and Social. I used the certificates to get some great new titles for our classroom library. I know the students will enjoy reading them!
Subject Update:
- Spelling - Lesson 8: Review of lessons 1-7
- English/Writing - The students will continue to work on their ABC books. They will peer edit, make revisions, and start "publishing" their books.
- Reading - We will read a mystery story entitled, "Meg Mackintosh and the Missing Babe Ruth Baseball." The students will search for clues along with the main character in order to find the missing baseball.
- Science - The students are learning about food chains and food webs. The Chapter 3 Science Test is scheduled for Wednesday, October 24th!
- Social Studies - We will read about some of the resources found in the Northeast. What natural resources might the Atlantic Ocean provide the people who live in the region? Also, the students will have a Northeast Map Test on Friday, October 26th! Spelling will count - so practice locations and spellings of water and states in the region.
- Accelerated Math - The students will learn how to read and create line graphs. Line graphs are good for showing how something changes over time.
