We have been very busy in the month of December. We have been working away on the music program which turned out to be very successful. They did a wonderful job. I know that it was a lot of work and practice.
During reading class, we are finishing our literature circles. Ask your child about the book that they are reading and finishing. I have seen a good deal of learning and discussing about the books that we are reading. I see that the students want to find out what happens in their books.
Microworlds and microscopes are being studied in the science class. We have looked at non-living items and living items including volvox, blepharisma, and vinegar eels. They have all enjoyed using the microscopes to see small items. We will continue with some use of the microscopes after the holiday break.
During Social Studies, we are studying about the American Revolution. We will continue to study the U.S. History.
In Math, we are continuing to work on place values of numbers. They are testing Unit 3.The holiday party is on Tuesday, December 22nd.
NO SCHOOL FROM WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 23RD TO JANUARY 3RD. WE BEGIN SCHOOL ON MONDAY, JANUARY 4TH.
HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY BREAK!
