Dear Parents,
We are going to try to go to the FiddlinRooster Farm next Tuesday, 10th of Nov. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that we have nice weather. Things are going well. We are finishing up our written reports on the 3 major Native American tribes in Mississippi this week and will be working on our illustrations Thursday and Friday.
SCIENCE – test on Friday – Chapter 3A
MATH – We will be using a number line and finding place value, sort and compare sets of numbers, and reviewing Chapter 7. Pgs. 109 – 115. Don’t forget daily exercises in Math- for- Today and Daily word problems. Some students need to review time tables – flash cards are a good way to practice.
READING – We will read pages 9-21 in our novel, “The Double Life of Pocohantas,” 13 vocabulary words this week. Be able to summarize these pages on Friday and take a test.
LANGUAGE – We will identify and use action verbs and linking verbs, and use the correct form of “be”. Pages 120-127. Don’t forget DOL and Daily Editing.
Spelling – Unit `14, Pgs. 90 – 95
Have a great week!
What a Great Beginning!

Dear Parents,
We have a busy week ahead of us. Our field trip to Fiddlin’ Rooster Farm is scheduled for tomorrow. We will leave school around 8:50. The students need to wear their uniforms and comfortable shoes(ones you don’t mind them getting dirty)Bring a bag lunch and a drink. If it rains (which it is supposed to) we will have to reschedule. They will wait until tomorrow morning to contact us. Because we have such a busy schedule, I am giving the children the week-end to work on their Reading projects. They may bring them in on Monday, November 2nd.
MATH – we are reviewing for Chapter 6 test. We will test on Wednesday.
READING – We will not have a story this week. We will be working on an in class project for Social Studies. We are studying the early tribes in Mississippi. The children will research a certain group, write a report, and illustrate on poster board, which I will provide.

Newletter for the Week of October 5-9th
October 5, 2009
Dear Parents,
We will be quite busy this week. Please read the following information so that you can assist your child if help is needed.
Reading – We are reading the story, “We’ll never forget you, Roberto Clemente”. Homework includes vocabulary words and sentences on Monday night. Tomorrow, we will complete a story chart and picture cards. We will complete activities that will enhance their comprehension of the story and vocabulary daily in class. You might want to listen to the story and make up questions for them to answer.
Language – We are working on drafting, revising, and writing a narrative this week. You will also notice that your child has a packet of papers – Wordly Wise. I will be incorporating a weekly grade from each lesson. Students must complete daily work and be able to use the vocabulary words in sentences. An assessment will be given on Friday. The students are doing much better in DOL. Keep checking and keep up the good work!
Math – We began a new Chapter this week. Daily Work is finished for HW.
Notice that we will cover Pgs. 73-83, Chapter 5 this week.
Social Studies – Test on Chapter 2 this week. Study guide went home today. There are some extra workbook pages that should be finished that will also help them in their studies. Be sure to study the skill for the week, “Inset Maps”.
Spelling – Unit 9
Science – We started a new chapter – Chapter 3A – Plants- Look on Planner for homework – None on Monday.
We are planning a field trip to Fiddlin Rooster Farm in October and the Old School and Museum, where the students will spend a day in school in the 1860s, in November. Alisa Fye was gracious enough to check these out and they sound great! A note will go home this week with dates. Linda Still
