Happy Wednesday!

Mrs. D was not here today. She was home with a sick child! Hopefully, she will be back tomorrow!

Here is what we were suppossed to do today:

Math: We took our six weeks computation test today. This is a very hard test and each time the students take it they do better on it. This test is looking at computation skills that the students are to have by the end of fifth grade.

Science: We read a National Geographic for Kids and did a vocabulary sheet dealing with this.

Reading: In Mrs. D's class we took a quiz over Running Out of Time chapters 1-5. We started to read chapters 6-10. This is a great book. Ask your child about it!

In Mr. H's class we introduced a new story The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.

English /Writing: We did an activity on following directions and we created a story about life in the big city using student chosen vocabulary.

Spelling: We did an activity to review our words. Our workbooks are due tomorrow and the test is on Friday.

Social Studies: We discussed prehistoric civilizations by reading from an old social studies textbook.

Have a great evening!
