December 13, 2013

Wow!  This semester went by so quickly.  We are already to the last week.  Not only is it the last week but it is only a three day week.  The students are very excited for Winter Break.  We have a fun week ahead of us.

Literature/Reading: Since it is a short week next week, we will not be doing reading groups.  We will also not be sending the reading bags home at all (unless your child has a chapter book they would like to finish before Wednesday).  We will keep reading bags here during the break but we encourage you to please still read with your child.  You can use the link on the side of the blog that links you to book level lists of trade books at their level.  In literature we will be learning two poems and discussing them.

History: We will be wrapping up our World Religions unit by talking about Islam.  We will discuss the three pillars of the Islam religion and talk about the major symbols and holidays that they have.

Science: Next week we will review the body systems that we talked about in class.

If you have not signed up for conferences, please do so.  They will be the first week after we are back from Winter Break.  You can sign up here: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0A4EAAAC22A57-parent2.

Also, please remember that Wednesday is a 12:15/12:30 release with no extracurricular clubs.  After break, students will return on January 7.  Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday that week will be half days and Friday will be a full day.

We hope that you have a wonderful and safe Winter Break.
