Mrs. Kirsch checked off books for reading and students had time to read, take notes, and make progress on Book Report #2. PLEASE HAVE YOUR CHILD READ THE EXPECTED NUMBER OF PAGES TO COMPLETE THE BOOK BY THE 9TH OF MARCH. Students calculated the number of pages they had to read each night. Please hold them to it and encourage them.
MATH HOMEWORK IS TWO-FOLD: TESSELLATION CUT OUT AND WORK ON REVIEW #8. The review is not due until Friday, as is the whole chapter. We will have a test on Friday.
Foreign Language and Art for the 4th Graders, research for the 5th Graders followed lunch. 5th Graders are wrapping up "I wonder..." projects. Some are doing power points, others writing skits and making posters.
We were rewarded for the Jazz Readathon effort by having a visit from:
| 0 | Enes Kanter | C | 6-11 | 247 | 05/20/1992 | Fenerbahce Ulker/Kentucky/Turkey |
After recess, we received the Country Speech Project Guide. We plotted deadlines for each paragraph, discussed costume, food, etc. STUDENTS SHOULD BE RESEARCHING THEIR COUNTRIES EVERY NIGHT FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION. They should choose 3-4 areas to specialize in. Examples are: animals/plants/landscape/language/culture/dance/masks/religion/music/transportation/industry/agriculture/
history/famous people/tourism/sports/mountains/olympics/etc. We would like these to be written by the 15th, so students may plan and perform their speeches before I leave to New Zealand.
I will be gone from the 21st March - 12 April.
