HAPPY HALLOWEEN/ 4 DAY WEEKEND

Families, I cannot express enough how great our class community is progressing.  We are all giving our best and making adequate academic progress.  My observation is kids are generally happy and enjoying 5th grade.  I have included a brief description of our current work.  Next week, we will focus on 3 main projects during our short week.  In the Friday Folder, there is a slip confirming our family conference time.  Please return it as soon as possible.  Enjoy the 4 day weekend!

I am sure our Halloween party will be a huge success due to our creative kids and super helpful volunteers!  Thank you so much for all your efforts!  Let me know if you have any questions.

Reading:  We finished our book clubs and lit journals.  Students will have a bit of time to work on a book share next week and we will finish up our read aloud, The Phantom Tollbooth.

Writing: We will have specific writing lessons on mechanics and organization to help kids succeed in their Native American museum exhibit rough draft.

Social Studies:  All our ss time will be spent creating written and visual rough drafts of our Native American museum exhibits.

Science: We will finish up two assignments next week:  Compost experiment plan and Observation Sheets/Word Cloud.

Math:  We did a divison check today so I can see how we are all progressing with division before we immerse ourselves in two digit divisors next week.
