February 13-17th

Spelling: List 18 went home today. Test is Friday. I expect the majority of their studying to be done at home. Writing their words out on paper really helps them learn their words.

Middle School Block: Our group is moving to ELA with Mrs. Marquette. They are working on close reading skills, reading for comprehension, main idea, and parts of speech.

Math: We are testing on fractions on Monday. Doing IXL daily will help students retain the math skills learned. PLEASE log in for 10 minutes a night.

Writer's Workshop: We are finishing up our research papers on careers. Mid February we will do a poetry unit.

Reading: Battle of the Books is Tuesday! Students should finish up their books for the challenge. Also, keep the 40 book goal in mind. Many are reaching their goal already! Everyone needs to read nightly 20-30 minutes. 

Valentine's Day: We are having a contest for the most creative, most Valentine-y and the best craftsmanship. bring your 23 valentines and a treat if you choose. It will be a great day!

Have a great weekend!

Mrs.Wagner
