This week...

we will be visiting the Scholastic Book Fair. The books are buy one get one free.

We are studying more words with the long o sound for spelling. We are also working on our MARE reports and posters. They will be displayed in the hall when the students have completed their final drafts.

In math we are studying fractions. We will learn how to find equivilant fractions and how to add, subtract, and multiply fractions. Then we will move on to decimals.

Testing is FINISHED!!!

Now that testing is finished, we can finally return to an almost normal school week. We will have some disruptions to the day due to concert practice. There will be homework during the week. There will be NO homework on the night of the concert.

Testing...

This week begins the 6-8th grade portion of the NJASK testing. Students will not have homework in my class, but should take the time after school to review previously learned material to refresh their minds for the testing. I hope they go to bed at a nice hour and eat a healthy breakfast each morning. Keep in mind the high pollen count outside. If your child goes outside to play after school, please have him or her shower before bed to help clear the pollen from them and prevent an interrupted night of sleep.
