Tuesday

Language Arts - While I was away yesterday students started on the novel Graffiti Ghoul and are working on the responses and Vocab Vitamins for next week.

Response to Chapters 1-4 due Friday Feb 15th

Students should have Vocab vitamins and at least one activity completed for this Friday Feb 8th.
They also need to tell by then which of the three activities they will be doing for the Response.

Vocab Vitamins are due Wednesday Feb 13



Science: Students are to bring materials for an activity tomorrow where thy will build instruments that can measure wind speed and direction.

Math - students are working on multiplication questions on page 67 of the handout.

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and the grade 5s are leading the celebration in song and reading. Parents are most welcome to join us at the school. The service begins at 10:30.


Friday is the deadline for ski forms to be in. There is lots of snow up at Castle so the conditions should be great.


NEWS Our class is matched up with a school in Katy, Texas. We will be connecting via VC with them Wednesday February 27th. They will be sharing some of their work with us and we will be reading something to them and working through an activity together. I may want to record some of this for future use and teacher training so I look for permission forms to go home soon.
