BON DIA WEEK 9!
October 31, 2011
Bon Dia, Good Day! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I just wanted to say that it was great getting to meet all of you at conferences.
Last week was a very short week and I failed to post a blog, but we had a great time carving pumpkins on Tuesday afternoon. I want to thank Mrs. Rappe and Mrs. Thomas for coming in and helping us with the carving. All the pumpkins turned out amazing, and the students should be so proud of them selves.
Notices
*I will not be sending home a homework packet this week! I will send home a reading log, students need to document their reading each night after reading.
*Science club for 3-4.
*Please bring in your soap for One Saturday. Our first One Saturday is this coming Saturday, November 5th.
READERS/WRITERS WORKSHOP – Starting this month we will be working on ‘Slice of Life’ stories. These stories are still personal narratives, but with a kick, hoping to raise the quality of narrative writing.
In Readers Workshop we are going to finish the Judy Moody book and then go into Stone Fox, and follow it by watching the movie.
MATH – 4th grade mathers this week will continue working on function tables, simplifying equations, evaluating expressions, solving equations, and beginning to solve long multiplication problems. We will finish up our multiplication unit next week and have our test Friday, November 11th.
.
RELIGION – This week we will continue with our Steps to Respect program along with understanding the different parts of the Rosary.
SPELLING – (NOT FOR MSL STUDENTS, THEY HAVE THEIR OWN WORK) each week a new list of spelling words is given. Monday is a pre-test and spelling assignment. Tuesday and Wednesday they are writing spelling sentences. Thursday is an additional spelling worksheet. Fridays we have our spelling test, turn in all of our spelling from the week, and then are able to play word games. Each day an assignment is assigned to work on in class. If they are unable to complete the assignment, they need to complete it at home. At the end of the week all of the spelling work is neatly put together, stapled and turned in.
SOCIAL STUDIES – This week we are going over our new Mid -Trimester for Studies Weekly. I am also going to introduce a STATE research project that they will be doing from home. We may have some time in class to do some research as well. The idea is that they will do most of their research from home.
SCIENCE – Metric System Foss Kit we will continue with!
May you all have a safe HALLOWEEN tonight!!!
HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!
