Hi everyone,
Notes from today:
1) Last week, the results on our spelling test were not very strong at all. I think students have been forgetting or neglecting their home spelling practice because I'm not hounding them in class about it. Please check your child's planner for spelling words. They should be writing "Spelling test-Friday" in their planners at least once per week. Generally speaking, if your child is coming home with nothing written in his or her planner, then he or she is not writing what they should be.
2) Homework today:
Bridge to Terabithia ch. 11, reread and complete questions.
Spelling: complete corrections on pretest (x3 of each misspelled word) and complete worksheet.
3) Science test on clouds and weather observation: Tuesday, Dec. 14th. This test will cover all the work we've done on clouds and methods of weather observation in class. Students should have notes to study in their books.
4) Math drill sheet (x8) due Wednesday
5) Unfortunately, it is becoming more common for students to forget school work at home. If your child leaves his or her notebook(s) at home, they then have nothing to do in class when we work on that subject. This is a big problem because they miss the opportunity for feedback on their work, and new work and/or pages are loose because they have nowhere to put them. Please help your child to remember to bring back ALL school-related work and notebooks to school each day. Thanks!
6) Two notices from the Westwood PAC came home today. Please check your child's planner for notices when you sign it.
