June 1, 2010

Welcome back, we hope all of you enjoyed your time off.

NWEA's will be upon us shortly, be sure to put your best effort into them!

Social: We will be finishing up our unit on the Industrial Revolution. Be sure to look over your vocabulary words in preparation for the test.

Science: Working on science packet

LA: We will not have spelling this week due to the shortened week. We will begin a fun Narrative Writing unit by using music!! We will also be preparing for the NWEA's.


Math: Ms. Wallwork's class is working on angles, positive and negative numbers, and finding the length of a semicircle and its area.


Reading: We will work on public speaking by learning first what a good audience looks like and what a good speaker looks like. Each student will read a short children's story to their peers to practice proper speaking techniques.

4th Quarter is a very exciting time in physical education. The students have finished their spring fitness tests and are anxiously awaiting the 5th annual STRIDE field day. Spring fitness test reports will be sent home in Thursday Folders next week. The majority of the remaining physical education classes will be outside. We will be having units in t-ball/softball and cooperative games. Thank you for helping make this school year great. I am looking forward to finishing the year off with a lot of fun in physical education.
