Week of January 10, 2011

Most of our time this week will involve taking the DRA and udating the reading level of each student.
MATH = fractions... students made a fraction book and should refer to it as
                                   needed when completing class/home work.  Last
                                   week students identified fractions using pictures.
                                   This week we will locate fractions on a number line and
                                   make comparisons (less/greater than; equal to).
SPELLING = WTW 15... students will take the 2nd part of their spelling test
                                   on Monday (words #13-24).  New spelling words will be
                                   written in their agenda on Monday and the test for the first
                                   section will be Friday and the test over the second section
                                   will be next Monday.  Students will write each 
                                   spelling word in their spelling journal 5 times and write
                                   one sentence for each word.  The first section will be due
                                   on Thursday and the second section will be due the
                                   following Monday.
READING = January Reading Calendar... Students will need to read 500
                                    minutes for the month of January.  The December
                                    calendar was collected last Thursday.  The January
                                    calendar should be turned in by the 3rd of February.
                                    Students should be reading at least 20 minutes each
                                    night.
SOC. ST. = This quarter we will be studying Jackie Robinson and Martin
                     Luther King, Jr.  Students will learn how to use resources in our
                    library to help with their research project and our discussion on
                    civil rights.
SCI. = In Science we will study the seasons and planets.  We will have an
            assignment that will be due near the end of the quarter.  More info
            will be provided at a later date.
WRITING =  This week we will write on several journal topics and discuss our
                       upcoming writing projects (SS and SCI).
