The latest News: This week we will be focused on the following: In Writing, we will continue to work on writing interesting paragraph leads and creating strong supported paragraphs. We will also be working on punctuation of sentences. We will have small punctuation quiz Friday In Science, we will begin to explore the relationships that occur within natural ecosystems. Students will be taught note- taking skills and are encouraged to focus their studying on the “power vocabulary.” Notes as always we be posted on the web and the quiz will occur on Friday.

The best way to help your child prepare for the quiz on Friday is to study the major vocabulary words and the concepts behind them. This should be done 10 minutes each night. (Science retake quiz is available this Monday for anyone who wants to increase their last Friday quiz score. Simply bring in the old quiz with a parent signature. I will give the better of the two quiz scores…not the average. SO… GO FOR IT !) BAND REGISTRATION LINK IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CLASS WEB PAGE for those interested in band or orchestra.
