Week of May 15th

Posted on May 16, 2017

I hope everyone had a lovely Mother's Day and a relaxing weekend.  We are getting down to the last few weeks of school!

Language Arts- We have finished our study of figurative language and will have our test on Wednesday.  We have also used what we know about figurative language to write our own odes.  We will be typing them in the lab on Tuesday.  Final copies are due on Thursday.   The students are really looking forward to sharing their poems with the class as well!   We have also completed our last unit on pronouns, and we will have a test this Friday.  Review sheets will be sent home on Wednesday.  Finally, our unit 13 vocabulary quiz will be this Tuesday. 

Science-We are making our way through the solar system!  The students are having a great time learning all about the different characteristics of each planet. You may have even heard your child singing the solar system song we have been playing in class.  We will finish learning about the inner planets this week, and then we will move on to study the outer planets.   The students are also working on a planet IMovie in computer class. 

Spelling-We are on Unit 33 this week, and we will have a test on Friday.

*Friday is May Crowning, and the students will be dismissed at 11:30.

Have a wonderful week!
