It's Labor Day Weekend!

Hope everyone has a great weekend.  Don't forget to bring your practice spelling test in on Tuesdays.  Workbook pages will be due on Wednesday. 

My plan is to take some basic geography quizzes daily next week.  On Tuesday we will quiz over the west and southwest regions and the cardinal directions.  On Wednesday, we will quiz over the midwest region and hemispheres.  Thursday will cover the northeast region, latitudes (parallels),  and longitudes (meridians.)  Friday will cover the southeast region and locating specific locations on a map.

We have been focusing on ordering and writing decimals in math.  We will continue reviewing and working on that standard next week.

We have finished our health ch 10 and its connections to Kid in the Red Jacket.  I will be quizzing over that at the end of next week.  All vocabulary words and definitions should be in the back of the green science folder.  (Connection sentences to Kid are bonus points.)

We will finish The Hundred Dresses and another short picture book that go along well with our health focus unit.  I will be checking to see who met their short term goal (lesson 2 ?) for hours read for the super bowl.  That goal is written in their agendas.

Hope everyone finds time to do some awesome reading for enjoyment over the weekend!

Finally, congratulations to King Ethan R., Princess Lauryn, and Duchess Attika for our math royalty today.  (My apologies to Queen Kendra...we miscommunicated, but we'll be seeing more of her soon on our royalty court.)

AGAIN, HAVE A GREAT LABOR DAY WEEKEND!
