Week of October 29th

Happy Halloween families! Here is the week's agenda:

Reading - We will finish the BFG on Monday. The children will have an assigned fantasy by Roald Dahl.  They will have 2 weeks to complete the story. (Due on November 12th.) I will give them an assignment to complete when they are done.  Our skill focus for the week: Review - We will revisit Setting, Context Clues, and Sequencing.

English - Pronoun usage

Spelling - List 16 Plurals, None of the children had even looked at the enrichment list last week, so I chose not to give the test.  If I have children interested this week, I will give the test.  Other wise we will forgo spelling enrichment. It is the "G" enrichment list on spellingcity. 

Math - We will work on multiplication facts this week as well as 2 digit x's 1 digit multiplication.  We will also do some cummulative review, as well as take an addition properties quiz.

Social Studies - Indian Regions, George Washington and the Revolutionary War, and the Boston Tea Party.


***Our Halloween Party will be on Wednesday morning.  If your child is dressing up, please send him/her in costume to school.  The Halloween Parade will be right after Grizzly Growl, and then the party will follow the parade.***
