November 23-24th

This week in reading we will be practicing our fluency. We will discuss how to read fluently by using expression, phrasing, a good rate, and reading accurately. We will also learn a little about the Pilgrims and the First Thanksgiving. Students should complete a reading log for Monday and Tuesday of this week and turn it in on the Monday after Thanksgiving (next Monday). There will be no spelling homework for this week though! Spelling will resume next week.

This week in writing we will be finishing our Turkey vs Farmer letters. They are due tomorrow, Tuesday and we will read them to the class. If students have not typed these letters and shared them with me yet, they should have brought it home tonight to finish.

This week in math we will continue our place value unit. We will learn how to read and write numbers in word form, standard form, and expanded form. We will also learn how to compare numbers.

This week in social studies we will be continuing our Recreation Project. We will continue making presentations on our chosen activities. Students should be studying their counties at home. We will be taking our first quiz on these counties when we get back from the break next week. Here is a study guide for Quiz 1.

North Central Quiz given on November 30th for my class and December 1st for Mrs. Ditto's class.

Central Region Quiz given on November 30th for my class and December 1st for Mrs. Ditto's class.

Tuesday will be our school's Movie Party at Orem High. We will be watching Inside Out. If you have not yet signed your student's permission slip, please make sure that you send them to school with it tomorrow! And please make sure that your student is on time to school tomorrow! We will be getting on the bus right after the bell at 9:15 tomorrow. If your student misses the bus, they will have to stay at the school and miss the movie. Also, report cards will be coming home tomorrow. Please look for them when your student comes home. Lastly, I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe break!!!
