Mrs. Caliendo's Chronicles
September 20, 2019

Social Science The test on the 7 continents and 5 oceans is scheduled for Thursday, September 26. Students will have to label their correct location on a world map. They will be given a word bank to copy the names from. Spelling will count. Their homework for the weekend is to copy the continents and oceans in the right location. It is due on Monday and will be taken for a grade. They also were given a blank one that is in the clear sleeve of their binder. Please have them practice labeling throughout the week using a dry erase marker.
Spelling Students are being asked to choose 3 activities, one from each column, on the Spelling Homework Menu. This will help them master their spelling words. All 3 activities should be stapled to the Spelling Homework Menu and the square initialed by a parent. It should be turned in by Friday, September 27, which is the day of the test. The test will include 15 words from the student's list (teacher's choice) and 2 sentences, using any of their 2 words.
English Language Arts Your child has been writing a 5 paragraph essay about their "Me BAG". Next week they will be presenting their "Me BAG" to the class by reading their essay to the class. They will be graded on their presentation. We went over the expectations in class today. Please see the green sheet in their homework folder for the complete project and have them practice over the weekend.
At the end of the week, we will begin a unit on Folktales: Fairy-tales, Fables, and Myths. Students will recount stories and determine the central message, lesson, or moral and explain how it is conveyed through key details in the text.
Please keep track of your child’s reading (20 minutes, 20 days). They can turn the September log in on or before October 1.
Mrs. Caliendo's Math Class Our focus will be on length, which will include a fun scavenger hunt. Please practice your addition and subtraction facts.
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.
9-23 Scholastic Book orders are due
