Spelling: Spelling lists went home on Friday with Friday papers. This week is Lesson 6. I will begin sending home the next week's list on Fridays each week for those kids that wish for extra days to practice their words. The spelling packet was given to the students today during our study hall time. The packet is NOT homework for this week as it has been. I provided the copies of the spelling packet for students to practice their words, but I WILL NOT be collecting the packets this week.
Math: We will have our second math test on Thursday. I provided a study guide and "test alert" today that students were asked to place in their homework sections. This is NOT an assignment, but will certainly prepare the kids for their tests on Thursdays. The students DO have Study Link 2.8 page 41 due on Tuesday.
Language Handbook (p105) and Social Studies (p4& 6): These two assignments were given on Friday. Each student was encouraged to bring these two assignments home over the weekend, but they were not required to do so (I don't like to give homework on the weekend unless it's a project).
Science Packet Week 3: Due Friday. Each student received this packet today and has all week to complete.
Book Club: Summaries are still due this week. Each student will write a 5 paragraph summary by the end of October with topic sentences and details for each paragraph.
Vocabulary: Lists will go home on Wednesday. However, the words for this week correspond with this week's story and can be found in the "Vocabulary Power" section of the green reading basal.
