Reading students are completing an outside book report project in the genre of
Fantasy. Projects
will be presented Monday, January 12th. Click on the books to see the Book
Project selections and rubric.
Book
orders are due by Friday, January 16th.
All students have a student planner and are expected to record their daily
homework assignments. Please be sure that your child returns to school
each day with his or her planner, reference books, and completed homework
assignments.
Students are expected to be reading a minimum of 20 minutes per night, at least
4 nights
each week. They must generate a response to what they have read daily. Reading response sheets are due
on Friday.
In the Everyday Mathematics program, students are expected to have mastered
multiplication facts prior to grade 5. Please practice this basic skill
with your child at home if he/she has not mastered multiplication facts.
