April 5, 2019

ELA We began our final ELA unit which focuses on "standing up for what you believe in." We are reading the novel The One and Only Ivan. Students are completing a packet that addresses multiple reading skills. Our grammar focus will be on similes and metaphors.

SOCIAL SCIENCE  We will continue our unit on Chicago. During this time, students are working on answering text dependent questions. Next, we will be learning about the waterways and the Industrial Boom. There will be a test on Monday, April 8. A blue study guide went home Thursday. Students need to have it filled out and with them on Monday. They will be able to use it for the test.

Don't forget to read for 20 days/20 minutes per night and record it for April.

SPELLING  Three items on the menu, 1 from each column, are due on Friday, April 14, the day of the test.

If your child should forget their Student Book or their Home Connections workbook at school, they can go into my google math classroom from a home computer and print the page they will need to complete for homework.
