Oh....my WHOLE blog got deleted!!!

A short blog for now...

I have all field trip forms for next Monday.  If you can walk with us, please let me know.  Thanks.  Please sign and return the next field trip form for our April 28th play.  Thanks.

Language Arts:  Your child has an AR goal that you should sign and return.  We are working on Couplet and Giving Poetry.  We read an article on "Schools Bribing Students".  What can your child tell you?  We are writing an Expository on this article.

Homework:  Monday and Tuesday-Giving poem.  Wednesday your child will be given the assignment to write both a couplet poem and a giving poem-both poems are due Friday.

Your child should have signed up to give a talk on their Young Author's Book.  We have started these and the books and the talks have been wonderful!!!  When did your child sign up to give their talk?

Math:  Lessons 8.6-8.9 will be completed.  Your child will take home their Math Journal 2 workbook on Thursday evening to study for our Unit 8 Test on Friday.

Social Studies:  We are working on a Map Essentials review of lessons 1-10 today and tomorrow (if we do not finish, we will finish up on Thursday).

Art:  I hope you can stop by and see our "Skyscrapers"  They are the talk of the school!!! :)  They really are wonderful.  This week we will design a city block.  (Keeping Chicago in mind.)

Science:  We will look at minerals and rocks and observe the reactions we see when they are placed in vinegar.  As always, we will record our observations in our Science Lab Notes.

I will try and send this again-hope it works.  Jean Clement
