March 2-6th

This week in reading we are talking about different presentations of text. We will look at oral, visual, and audio interpretations of the same text. We will talk about the different things we get or learn from each presentation of the text. We will be doing Sort 50 for spelling with -y, -ly, and -ily words. Students still need to turn in 20 points worth of work for these words on Friday. Lastly, of course, don't let your student forget to do their reading log and turn it in on Monday! These are the easiest 100 points students can get! Let's make sure we work hard this final term to stay on top of our work and not get behind!

This week in writing we are working on our rough drafts for our Author Report. If students have not finished their research, they now need to finish this at home. When we are finished writing all 8 paragraphs of our rough draft, we will edit and revise this paper. The rough draft should be done by this Friday.

This week in math we are learning how to measure angles. We will talk about angles in a circle, learn how to use a protractor and measure angles, and learn how to join and separate angles to make other angles.

This week in social studies we will talk about the other immigrants who came after the Mormon Pioneers that came to Utah. We will also discuss what life was like for them. We will then begin discussing how Utah became a state and the challenges faced with gaining our statehood.

Finally, grades are being sent home tomorrow. Please make sure that your student brings it home and gives it to you so you can see how they finished off the 2nd term!
