ELA/Reading Update: February 9-13

Greetings!  Please remember we will have a Valentine's Day party on Friday, February 13 at 1:30.  In your child's Friday Folder we sent home a white bag to be decorated for Valentine's. There was also a list of every child's name in the 5th grade.  You don't need to make a Valentine for each child, but each child in their homeroom. Also, remember that next Monday, February 16th is a school holiday.  Enjoy your nice long weekend!

Kimbell's Homeroom:  We need donations for our Cultural Arts Night basket.  So far, only one person has donated anything.  Thank you, CJ!!  The theme of our basket is A Day at the Beach! Any donations (monetary or otherwise) are appreciated.  These baskets will be auctioned off to the highest bidder on Cultural Arts Night, March 10th.

Reading:  I introduced a new set of roots this morning.  We will test on ject next Tuesday, February 17th.  We are also continuing our book study of Counting on Grace.  I think the students are enjoying this story about what life was like in the early 1900's.

Here is a link to Quizlet that will help your child study for their roots test.

ELA:  We will continue to practice writing constructed and extended responses in ELA.  We will also be visiting the computer labs this week.  We will work on Study Island.  This is a great program your child can work on at home to help build their skills for the Milestone in April.

As always, if you have questions please let me know.  Have a great week!

~Mrs. Kimbell
