Week of November 13 - 17, 2017

Friday:
PA Day for interviews.  No School.  See you on Monday.

Thursday HW
1.  Report cards were handed out Monday.  Please review them with you child in advance of our interview.  If you can I would like all parents or guardians to bring along their child's agenda to the interview.  I would appreciate the return of the envelope with a parent/guardian signature.
2.  20 minutes of reading
3.  Consider getting a Geometry math set (protractor, sturdy compass especially) for our geometry unit.
Today we reviewed the learning goals for our Geometry unit and took a note on polygons and polyhedra.  We also experimented with tangrams to design shapes to identify right angles and record side lengths with hatch marks.  We also reviewed the features of a few types of writing (narratives, non-fiction, news articles, and legends) in advance of a reading assessment next week.  Students who are absent should consult with their study buddies for tips on how to catch up before attending an extra help time:
