I've decided to have only the rough draft of the written piece for the museum exhibit due this Thursday. I will help everyone with ideas for how to present the final draft. I've suggested that students look online to find additional information on the topic they've chosen. They can bring this information to class tomorrow.
Tuesday's homework:
Math #43
Work on written portion of museum project.
Continue to study the final 10 vocabulary words (#11-20) on Terabithia list for Friday's reading test

Hello,
This week we are focusing on our social studies "museum" project which showcases the early American colonies. Each student is responsible for creating three products for his or her group's exhibit: 1) a written piece, 2) a chart, map, or diagram, and 3)an art piece. The final draft of the written piece is due this Thursday. We will have a workshop time on Wednesday to work on the art component which will be due next week.
The completed exhibit is due on Friday, 10/24.
Our first field trip is coming up next month. We will be going to NASA Ames in Mountain View on Friday, November 7. I will be sending home permission slips and more detailed information later this week.
I look forward to seeing you all at conferences this week!

Hello,
I've told my students that they should be reading another chapter book (fiction) for our second book report which will be due the first week of November. I'll give a specific date and send home the guidelines for the report soon. I've asked them to show their book choices to me by the end of this week.
Since we will be focusing on vocabulary words this week, there will be no spelling homework or test!
Reminders for this week:
***Be prepared to recite poem on Wednesday.
***Study the first 10 vocabulary words from Bridge to Terabithia for Friday's reading test.
Monday's Homework:
Read for 30 min. (Decide on a book for your next book report if you haven't already chosen one.)
Math # 37
Vocabulary: Choose 5 words from your Terabithia list and use each in a good sentence (one that shows you know the meaning of the word).
Begin studying definitions of Terabithia words.
Practice poem
***No News Teams this week. The Sentinel was not delivered today!

Hi,
I went over the poetry activity with everyone today. They should be prepared to recite next Wednesday morning. We also had quite an exciting debate today - 1 hour and 10 min. long! The kids had great ideas and offered thought provoking points for both sides of the issue. Great job!
Wednesday's homework:
Math #33
Read - 30 min.
News Team #3 - Continue to prepare
Think about which poem you'd like to recite
