End of Year School Picnic
In the interest of ensuring that all students remain safe
while having fun during the school picnic, gym shoes will be the only
acceptable foot wear of the day. Little
toes and feet cannot play when bruised and abraded. If feet are not in proper
attire, students will not be allowed to participate in outdoor activities. Thank
you.
Homeroom Happenings:
We will be wrapping up everything this week.
Science - The children will take an open-book test on Chapter 15 on Monday. We played a review game Friday afternoon in class to prepare for this test. We will spend the rest of our science time learning about minerals, rocks, and the rock cycle.
Social Studies - The children are working in small groups to research a Native American tribe. They are creating postage stamps to represent the tribe's homes, traditional clothing, ceremonies, families, etc. I have chosen a tribe from each of the 5 regions. Ask your child which tribe they are studying.
Spelling - Last week was our final week of spelling!
English - We will take the Unit 7 open-book test on Tuesday. We went through part of the review pages in class on Friday to prepare for this test. English enrichment will also be due on Tuesday. This will be our last unit.
