In math, we are working with variables. A test will occur on Tuesday. After this, we will be switching gears to geometry. We will begin with naming, classifying, and measuring angles on Wednesday.
In reading, we are continuing with our novel studies. Please ask your child if they are keeping up with assignments. I will be sending individual class dojo messages this week if I am missing assignments from your child. Please make sure they are reading at home. Here is where they should have read to in the different novels:
A Wrinkle in Time: Ch. 4
Holes: Ch. 10
The Graveyard Book: Ch 2
Number the Stars: Ch. 4
(The amount of pages are roughly the same, it's just that some books have longer chapters than others.)
Picture Day is Wednesday, 2/27. Please make sure that you have your child bring in $9.00 for a class picture. This fifth grade picture makes a great memento of all the kids in the class. If you have lost the envelope, you can pay online using a credit card at www.strawbridge.net Follow the online instructions and enter the following code when prompted: 108676
