Happy Tuesday!
We are in our final week of PSSAs and the students will be tested in the subject of Science this week. Please make sure that your child continues to get a good night sleep and has a good breakfast each morning. The students will complete PSSAs tomorrow, April 27th.
Here is what is happening in our upcoming weeks of school:
Math - The students have completed their entire math curriculum. The students will be assessed on math boxes that they complete in class and any homeworks that may be sent home. Homework will not be sent home until all PSSAs are completed.
Science - This Friday we will be celebrating Arbor Day along with the launch of our STEM unit. On May 3rd, we will be starting our unit on STEM, which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The students will work in groups to complete a problem that is given to them. Each problem is based off a story line and in each scenario, the students will be required to build different structures. This unit will be the majority of their grade for the fourth marking period. Mrs. Lankford and myself are still collecting any of the materials from the list that we sent home last week. Thank you to the parents who have already brought stuff in!
Reading - We are experiencing texts in different forms including plays and movies. We will be comparing and contrasting these texts to the different presentations.
Writing - We are wrapping up our essays and will be writing reflection pieces on the historical facts that we have learned.
Social Studies - We are beginning a new unit on government.
Work Work - Tic-Tac-Toe Spelling will be due Monday, May 2nd.
