Week of August 26



Week in Review:
We made it to the pond this week! Students spent time making observations about Earth's different spheres. Next week we will turn these observations into 4 pieces of poetry. We kept busy reading Night of the Spadefoot Toad, using it to identify and practice writing similes and metaphors. Next week we'll add personification to our figurative language tool box. Students also spent quite a bit of time completing some FUSD beginning of the year tests called QUEST and AIMSweb Plus. Teachers will be using this data to guide instruction for the year and create reading groups for our intervention time each day.



Looking Ahead:
  • NO school Monday
  • NO homework next week
  • Comparing numbers and working more with exponential form
  • Continuing Night of the Spadefoot Toad
  • Science unit on Earth systems continues
  • Picture day September 18 (forms to be sent home later)
  • Mustang Gallop September 27


Congratulations to our students of the week!
Way to go, Elora and Jack!
You're classmates noticed that you were willing to give up your own time to help others.
