This week April 19-23

                Hello everyone.

I'm sure that most of you have noticed that your child is bringing home information regarding the upcoming EOG. 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classes are doing a count down to the EOG in preperation for the test. Each day we will be working on a topic from Reading/Math.

Currently, we have 19 days until the EOG.
Along with this, the students in 3rd-5th grades have signed a Student Contract which is shown below. This contract is asking for students to give 100% in preperation for the EOG. We will review over this contract daily so please do the same at home.

Reading: We are finishing up our Sister's Grimm story. I am pleased that the class has found a new series that they are interested in.

Writing: Our class is wrapping up our third story entitled "Mr. Potato Head." Just as a reminder, our stories are modeled up on the smartboard so everyone is following along and creating the same theme....but we work to put it in our own words.

Math: We will continue to work on Math EOG Prep as well as new concepts in Probability and outcomes. At home, it would be awsome for you to continue to work with you child on math facts. Simple division and multiplication will greatly help in their understanding.

Wordbuilder: We have started "acting out" our words. Each week, Wordbuilder starts us on new root words. Our job is to apply the suffix or prefix to he root word to recreate something new.
Our prefix for this week is "SUPER--" which means "Over or above; beyond."
