Lots of things to get caught up on this week before our big overnight field trip on Thursday.  In order for all of us to be at the same place at the same time, we are going to take a step back and get everyone caught up-to-date.  This includes a number of things that your student may/may not have done.  As there are other teachers that work with the students in my class, not everyone gets the same homework.  Please keep this in mind as you read over the following list as parts of it may not apply to your 5th grader.  
Homework Tonight:
  • Reading: StoryWorks story, "The Day it rained Cats", inference activity 'How do They Feel'.
  • Writing: Journal assignment, Compare and Contrast essay.  Own choice from brainstorming list we made in class last week. 
  • Math: according to math teacher.  Please refer to your mathematician's agenda.
  • Social Studies: Chapter 6 Study Guide, Lesson 1 and Lesson 2.  We will be working on Lesson 3 Wednesday and next Monday.  To move to that lesson about the Reconstruction in America after the Civil War, these two lessons need to be complete.  Also, the Civil War ABC presentation/book needs to be submitted in Google Classroom.  The students were shown how to attach the presentation to the assignment.  
Science: Microorganisms WebQuest, pages 11 and 12.  Due to a misunderstanding, the science test will be given a 'second look' on Wednesday, September 21st.  Please be sure your scientist is reviewing the study guides, book and classwork, to prepare to further explain written responses.  

Other important events:
-Picture Day is September 29th.  Please mark your calendar.  Order forms are coming home tomorrow, Tuesday, September 20.  

-Wellness Week (09/19 - 09/23): This week contains special activities to help our student population remember how to be healthy and take good care of our bodies.  Today was our Wellness Assembly, where we learned about all the important things to take good care of ourselves.  Each day, your student is to track one aspect of wellness and mark their Wellness Week Journal Page.  Today is 30 minutes of exercise.  Tuesday is limited screen time.  Wednesday is water intake.  Thursday is balanced diet.  Friday is adequate sleep.  Please continue to reinforce these healthy lifestyle habits at home.

My ABC Civil War book presentation is done and I am so happy because I was behind and I am glad I finished it in time. Also I hope I get an A+ because I have worked so hard on this presentation. Love, Chloe Walker
