Greetings:
I hope you had an enjoyable long weekend with your family (despite this wacky weather).
*Don't forget, we are going on our field trip to Fernbank Museum this Thursday. If your child is bringing a lunch, please pack it in a disposable bag labeled with his/her name. We plan to leave around 8:45 and return around 1:30.
*International Day is tomorrow. Parents and the ESOL teachers always make this a fun educational experience for the students. :)
This week in...
MATH
Purple group will continue unit 5, 2d shapes. We started talking about classifying triangles today. They will bring their unit 5 quiz home tomorrow. Please go over it with your child. We will review Friday, and their unit 5 test is scheduled for Tuesday 2/25. They have their practice packets in their binders.
Blue group will bring their quizzes home today. Please go over it with your child. We will review for the unit 2 (adding and subtracting decimals) test tomorrow, and they will take the test this Friday. Our next unit will cover multiplying and dividing decimals.
SOCIAL STUDIES
We are currently covering Westward Expansion. They will have a checkpoint (like a quiz - but shorter) on chapters 9 and 10 tomorrow. They have their notes, and I told them to bring their workbooks home also. Remember, if they forget workbooks at school, they can log on through Classlink. They will have another checkpoint next week after chapters 11 and 12.
If they haven't already, please ask your child to tell you about the social studies project for this unit. They have the directions and checklist in their binder! :)
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Nichole Bice
