March 21-24
Holy Week Begins
This week there will be no school beginning on Friday, March 25-April 3rd. School will resume on the 4th. Thank you to all parents who attended conferences. It is a nice way to discuss students work and upcoming skills needed for the 4th grade. Please continue to work on times tables up to 9 and it is a necessity for the upcoming grades. Also continue to work on Reading comprehension skills.
If your child does not complete assigned work in class they are being asked to complete it at recess. This will be on the honor system. It is important that they become responsible. Also if your child has to take work home it will be considered late unless it was assignment that needs to be reviewed at home. If the work is done at home it defeats the purpose of the classwork assignment. They will receive one grade lower to ensure that classwork is completed in class. I understand there will be circumstances that may arise but maybe this will hold the children more accountable. Thank you for your understanding.
Students are able to bring home any text books as needed.
Thursday will be a minimum day at 12:30. There will be no extended care. Please be sure your child is picked up promptly.
English - We are beginning cursive writing pages. Feel free to print out pages for your child to work on at home.
Reading - we have read Operation Rescue. We will have our reading and spelling test on Thursday. Students will need to reread the story on Wednesday night.
Social Studies - Ch. 8 Test will be on Thursday. The students wrote a study guide in class on Friday. I will remind them to bring home their book daily.
Science - we are finishing up Extension chapter 1 on animals. We will be doing an open book quiz on Wednesday.
Math - Ch. 12 Fractions
Religion - This week is Holy Week we will be discussing the Steps to Easter

April 4-8
Welcome back to school. I hope everyone had a nice break. We are well on our way through the end of the school year.
Your child will be receiving a packet of work tomorrow that will include the social studies test along with class assignments. Many students did very well with their social studies tests. Continue to help with the studying process at home. Thank you.
English- we are continuing to work on cursive writing and review of grammar worksheets
Reading- The rooster who understood Japanese
Math - continuing to work on fractions
Religion - Easter season
Science - extension chapter 2 rocks and minerals
Social studies - chapter 9
We are beginning chapter 9 in social studies. In the past I have had students choose a landmark and make a 3-d project with a short report. This is a very fun time for families to work on the project together. I would like them to be ready for Grandparents day which will be in the beginning of May. I have many landmarks to choose from and only allow one student or landmark. If you have something in mind please discuss it with your child but also have a second and third choice in case the others are chosen. Please look for the handout at the end of the week.
Spelling words this week are contractions. If there is an uppercase letter then it needs to be written accordingly on the test. I will be marking the answer wrong if there is an uppercase and there shouldn't be. Thank you
