This week's agenda:

Hello, everyone!

If you have not given me your grade folder empty, please do so tomorrow.

For the fifth graders tonight they have a conclusions and generalizations worksheet for homework. You'll notice on the back of their weekly home letter is a copy of their vocab list for the week so they can begin studying their words. Also, we are trying something new this week. Thursday is our vocab AND story test. It will be ten matching vocab, 5 true/false statements about the story and five multiple choice questions about the story.
We are reading They Called Her Molly Pitcher.

The sixth grader's story test is Friday, their Vocab test is Thursday, and there is a vocab quiz tomorrow. Tomorrow we'll have a vocab practice sheet for homework.
We are reading Scout's Honor.

For the seventh graders we are reading What do Fish Have to do with Anything? Their story test is Friday and their Vocab test is Thursday. There is a vocab quiz tomorrow. Tomorrow we'll have a vocab practice sheet for homework.

For the eight graders we are reading The Medicine Bag and Who are you today, Maria? Their their Vocab test is Thursday. Instead of our story test we are doing an identity collage. That will be due Friday. Tonight's homework is a vocab practice sheet.

Hope everyone has a great evening!

Happy Friday!

Friday Before the Looong Weekend

Thank you everyone, for a lovely first, full week!!!

Just wanted to let 5k and 5L parents know to expect to see some stellar Vocab and Story test grades in those Friday folders!!!

Cheers,

Miss Dean

Thursday

It's almost Friday, folks!

Some changes for today and tomorrow:

For 6th and 7th, we worked on a reading check for our stories. If you did NOT finish the Reading Check worksheet before we left for the library, then that is homework for tonight.

For my vibrant, 5th graders -- 5L worked on some extra vocab review today instead of taking the test and going to the library. So the Vocab Test for 5L was postponed until tomorrow. Please take advantage of this time and study! We will definitly go to the library next Thursday (5k isn't able to go next Thursday because of a presentation, so it evens out).

Have a lovely evening!

Happy Monday!!
