Week of December 13, 2010

This week will be jammed packed full of fun for our students! On Tuesday, we will be going on a field trip to the ropes course. Friday is a half day as well as our holiday party. This week the students will be working on leads(the beginnings of stories) and adding important information to their stories. In math, the students will be continuing graphs and beginning perimeter and area. In reading, the students will be finding main ideas in nonfiction. In science, the students will be exploring how erosion, deposition and weathering change the earth's surface. In social studies, the students will be learning about influential explorers who came to Texas. There will be no spelling hw this week due to the week's full schedule but the students will still have reading and math hw.
