Greetings:
I hope you all had a nice weekend with your families. I especially enjoyed the LSU win over Alabama (sorry Alabama fans;). The countdown is on 'til Thanksgiving break! Only 2 more weeks of school.
Reminders:
*Short field trip this Friday to Johns Creek High School to see a play.
*We are collecting canned goods and nonperishable items that can be donated to North Fulton Charities. Their pantry empties out quickly during the holiday month season.
*Lunch bunch is tomorrow, 11/12 - please make sure your child brings the book to school tomorrow
This week in...
MATH
Blue group will review the concepts for Unit 7 and their test will be Thursday 11/ 14. The concepts we will review are:
measuring angles, area/perimeter, converting customary and metric units of measurement, elapsed time, and line plots.
Purple group will continue to work on decimal division
(unit 3). They will have a quiz on Thursday 11/14. It will cover decimal multiplication and division. Their Unit 3 test is scheduled for Thursday, 11/21.
SOCIAL STUDIES
Tomorrow we are starting our new unit in Social Studies, The New Nation. We will be discussing what happened in our county after the American Revolution. This is the standard for this unit:
SS4H2 Analyze the challenges faced by the framers of the Constitution. a. Identify the major leaders of the Constitutional Convention (James Madison, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin). b. Evaluate the major issues debated at the Constitutional Convention: the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, the rights of states to govern themselves (federal system), the Great Compromise, and slavery (Three-Fifths Compromise).
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Nichole Bice
