Final Thoughts about T.G.F.D. Graduation
Thank you to all of the parents who were able to join us at the T.G.F.D. graduation ceremony. I think it is important to remember the advice given by Dr. Tiede and Deputy K that day. They said that the program should be a foundation - a starting point for family conversations about the value of making good decisions and staying drug-free. Deputy K certainly laid a firm foundation of facts and strategies, and I know with your continued guidance our students will do well in the future.
Subject Update:
- Spelling - Lesson 29 focuses on contractions and compound words.
- English - The students will be putting the final publishing touches on their Me Front Pages and starting our next grammar unit on verbs. A verb is a word that tells an action or state of being.
- Reading - We will be reviewing all of the reading strategies taught this year as we read a short story about Yo Yo Ma, a world-renown cellist who has an interesting cultural background. We will also be finishing up our "Postcards from the Far East" projects by Thursday.
- Science - The students will read about the forces that shape shorelines.
- Social Studies - We will review the events, people, and harsh conditions during the Revolutionary War. We will read a picture book about Washington crossing the Delaware to help students really visualize the conditions for the American soldiers. This will help them with an assignment later in the week.
- Mrs. Strong's Math Class -We will continue with customary and metric measurement. Math class will only meet Thursday and Friday due to the GeoSpace program schedule.
