October 20-23rd

This week in reading we will be learning about characters in Greek Mythology and understand ing references to them. We will read a few passages about the most famous characters and go over references to them. We will also take assessments on Main Idea and Story Elements. Our spelling is the same sort as last week, sort 17. On Friday students should turn in 20 points for this list. Tomorrow students should turn in a reading log with Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday's reading on it and they will get another for this week.

This week in writing we will be finishing our Haunted House stories. We will be writing our stories in books and we will read them on October 30th, our Halloween celebration. This will be the last week we will work on them in class, but students are welcome to work on them in class next week after they finish their other work.

This week in math we are finishing our Long Division Unit. We will be taking our test on Thursday. PLEASE review long division this week at home with your student! It is a really tough concept for students to understand. If you need a cheat sheet to help you remember how to do it, please let me know and I will send one home with your student. I will also send home the pre-test on Wednesday so you can practice these problems with your student.

This week in social studies we will be discussing industry and business. We will learning about different industries in Utah and we will also create a business and making a business ad for it.

Lastly, remember that Wednesday is make-up picture day. Also, I will be at a Reading Conference on Thursday and Friday of this week, but if you need anything from me, I will still be frequently checking my email.
