Dear
Parents:
Over the course of the last few days we have been discussing
the fact that your students need to be active participants in their learning.
The way we have defined this is that the students are active listeners in class,
focused on the current lesson, and responsible for getting their assignments completed.
May of your students are very successful in this area already but hopefully being
reminded of this will help those of them who need it.
I would like to
take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support. Is seems as though
we have been asking you to support the school in may different was as of late
and I just want to validate all of your help, thank you again.
Hope to see you at Barnes and Nobel Wednesday. Anne

THIS
WEEK
Language: the students have been very busy in language. We will
complete our unit on verbs and they will be assessed on Wednesday. The will also
receive a copy of the conjugations of the verbs "to be" and "to
have" this week. They will be expected to memorize these verbs and will be
quizzed on Friday. The reason for this is that we use these verbs often and because
they are so irregular in the conjugation, students dare often confused by them
and do not recognize them as verbs. I ma hoping that committing them to memory
will help them recognize all the forms of these verbs.
Reading:
We are continuing on with number the Stars. The students are enjoying this book
and are really enjoying learning about the larger topic of WWII. The students
are very curious and are asking thoughtful, deep questions. There will be a test
on chapters 9-12 on Thursday of this week. The test will alos include vocabulary
Spelling:
we are on Unit 17 this week. The focus of this lesson is works with double consonants.
The quiz will be Friday
Social Studies: We are studying Egypt and
will continue on with leaning about the great contribution this culture made to
the world. There are may extra activities connected with this unit. The students
are very proud of the cartouches the have made.
Character Ed: The
character trait that will be discussed in November is self-discipline
