1 The “Fury Fighters” Academy News Week of September 12, 2016
Dear Parents, Students will bring home their progress reports today. Please sign the envelope and have your child return it to their homeroom teacher. This Thursday is picture day. Students should come to school dressed in their school uniforms for this picture. Please contact your student’s homeroom teacher with any questions. Sincerely, Mrs. Rhyner, Mrs. Jenkins, and Ms. Mortimer *Mrs. Rhyner’s address has now changed* It is: Math: We will be wrapping up Topic 2 Adding and Subtracting Decimals this week with an assessment on Wednesday. We will start with Topic 3 which covers fluently multiplying multi-digit numbers using standard algorithm. In Edmodo, I have folders in the Math group for Topic 2 and 3 based on the standards we are learning. I have several tutorials, lessons and games to reinforce what we are learning about in math class. Please let your child log on iReady for at least 30 minutes during the week at home or when I assign it for homework. This week each student will get their scores for iReady and work on reaching a goal the next time they take the assessment. Science: This week in science we will begin our second unit on the Scientific Method. This week students will get new vocabulary words. The words are Experiment, controlled variables, independent variables, dependent variables, data, observations, control group, and hypothesis. Students will have a quiz on these words this Friday. This week we will also be talking about the scientific process and how scientists complete an experiment. ELA: This week in ELA we are starting our culminating activity for unit one, our Published Product.  This product is a narrative based on the text we read in class, The Lotus Seed.  Students are also expected to be able to identify and explain the structure of texts.  Spelling test will take place on Friday and all resources for this unit can be found on Edmodo.  Students should be reading at home each night for about 30 minutes.  This is an essential component to growth in ELA.  Please be encouraging your child to read at home each day.  Thanks for your help and support in this awesome endeavour.
