First Quarter is OvEr.. Moving on to the 2nd!

Reading-We will finally finish Stuart Little on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday, we will watch the movie. Students will be asked to take notes on comparing and contrasting the book to the movie. This covers one of our standards. They will then be asked to develop a venn diagram on Wednesday and Thursday.

5th Grade Writing:We have been reviewing and learning new language standards such as conjunctions and prepositions. Next week, we finish this on Monday. Starting on Tuesday, we will begin writing Scary Story narratives. We will begin writing these this week and will share these with our 2nd grade friends in Mrs. Bloomfield's class the following week.

4th Grade Writing: We started writing our first opinion paper. We will continue to work on this next week and finish this on Wednesday and share to the class on Thursday.

Projects: As you all know, we finished up our map presentations. All students worked very hard on this, I was very pleased with them all. Thank you all who were able to come in and see our projects. This week, we will start a very short project where we will learn about Economics. Students will learn how to take lecture notes and have a quiz or test at the end of each week on the information we learn. This will be a short two week project.

Auctions-We were not able to get to these this week with all the craziness of projects, so we will hold auctions all this coming up week.

Reminder to students....Thursday is wear your hair like a monster day. :)

Parent/Teacher Conferences: Most of you have signed up, just a reminder for those few to not forget to sign up for conferences starting on 10/26-10/29. You should have all gotten an email from signupgenius.com. Please let me know if you need help with this.

I hope everyone has a FaBuLoUs weekend! :)
