The last two weeks have gone by in a blur! We've moved from a measurement unit on to a money unit in math, begun preparing for our class field trip, and started the final unit of Language Arts for the year. Can you believe that there is only about a month left of school?! Another year will have come and gone before you know it.
Please keep in mind the following two events, both on Monday, May 4 (yes, it will be a busy day!):
- The class field trip to the Museum School will be from approximately 9:40-1:45. Parents who have volunteered to chaperone will receive a more detailed email from me.
- The Spring Program will begin at 7pm. Students should report to their seats no later than 6:50 that evening.
--- Also please note that this Friday students will be dismissed at 12:30 due to an afternoon staff development meeting.
A Peek At Our Week:
- Bible --- Students will be completing their skits of the miracles of Jesus and begin learning about following Jesus and His call on our lives to care for others.
- Language Arts --- We will be analyzing an author's purpose for writing a given text, identifying and using adjectives to enhance our writing, and tying it all together using a desert themed week. Students will begin writing "All About Books" during Writer's Workshop.
- Math --- Students will use calculators to add money amounts together and study dollars and cents notation for writing money amounts.
- Social Studies --- We will learn about the various regions of the United States and learn the basic parts of a map.
Here are a few photos of the Measurement Olympics we held as a culminating activity to our measurement unit for math. Enjoy!
