Important Reminders: There is a math test on Chapter 16 material Friday!! Please remember these important reminders on homework and tests: Summaries are paragraphs that include important things from their story. They must not include opinions, such as I love this book. Students take a vocabulary quiz once a week. There are 20 words and they must know their definitions. I recommend that the students take home their vocabulary notebooks nightly to study for their quiz. Notebooks must come back to school the next day. Our story this week is My Name is Maria Isabel. Progress reports come home on Monday.
We have a homework project for the winter season! The students are required to build a 3-D snowman and write an autobiography. The writing piece will be part of their writing grade and winners of the intermediate grades will be displayed for the school to see. These projects are due December 21st.
Your child will be a published author!! Forms were sent home to purchase a book that your child will write this year. Each student gets their own book filled with their own poems. The first book is free. Any other reprints of their book require you to purchase them. Please fill out the information, but know that you must have credit card or check and that they will not be cashed until Spring time.
