Week of 12/12/07

As I write this, I am hoping that we will have school on Wednesday! Surely! We don't want to have to make up too many days!

I meant to send a study guide home on Friday for the Northeast locations and states and capitals tests coming up. The study guide is still on my desk! I will move the testing days because of this! Friday we will have the test on locations and next Monday, the test on capitals. The states in the Northeast region are: Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Delaware, Massachusetts, and Maryland. I am also changing the due date of our Northeast region poster to Tuesday, December 18th.

These 3 days, we will focus on 4 main things: 1) Finishing up our owl unit- which includes finishing the book, Owls in the Family, and completing the comprehension work that goes with it, using their research notes to write a report on the owl they chose, disecting owl pellets (COOL!), and doing an owl craft!, 2) Practicing double digit by 1 digit multiplication, 3) Completing our Christmas Tree project, and 4) Working on the Northeast region posters.

I hope you are staying warm, safe, and dry. Hope to see you on Wednesday!
