I hope everyone enjoys the nice weather that is expected this weekend! I just wanted to touch base with everyone about this upcoming school week. On Monday, we will finish our practice ISTEP tests. We will then have the actual ISTEP test on Tuesday-Friday. On Monday, the students will be assessed on natural resources. They may use any notes that they have taken about the topic. Since we missed the end of the week, I will give the students an extra day to finish their weekly math. I know that some students leave this at school, so I don't want to penalize them if they were unable to finish it, due to the cancellation of school. This will be due on Tuesday. There is a copy on Edmodo, if they want to work on it this weekend. Lastly, we will be starting a chapter in math on division and a new concept in science this week.

Hope everyone enjoyed the nice weather we had this past weekend! Here are some highlights for this week and next week:<br />
<br />
Science: Tomorrow, students will be assessed on natural resources. They will need to tell me what they know about natural resources. Some information might include: What are they? How do we use them? What if we use them too quickly? How can we conserve them?<br />
<br />
Math: We took a test yesterday on chapter 7 and most of my class did awesome! :) This week, we will be reviewing various concepts. We will then begin chapter 8 on division.<br />
<br />
ISTEP practice is this week and the actual ISTEP test will be next week. We will be testing Monday-Thursday next week. Please make sure your child gets plenty of sleep and eats a healthy breakfast.

The students are working on group projects about alternative forms of energy. I have extended the deadline to Monday. The groups have some really great projects started! I am excited to see their final presentations. <br />
<br />
Along with the group project, each student needs to write a compare/contrast essay about alternative energy. Many students have turned this in early, but did not follow the rubric. I emphasized to the students today to refer to the rubric when writing their essays. Many have chosen to work more on this paper. The rubric is a green paper and it is also posted online. <br />
<br />
We will have a math test over Chapter 6 tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Literacy Centers (Word Work and Reading Response) are due on Monday.

<br />
Summarize It! is due on Wednesday. Students will need to read a nonfiction article and a fiction article and fill out a summary form for each story.<br />
<br />
For writing, we are working on a compare/contrast essay dealing with two desserts. The second rough draft was due today. I edited these and gave them back to the students. They will need to make changes and write a third rough draft. This draft is due on Wednesday.<br />
<br />
In math, we will be taking a test over measurement (chapter 11) on Thursday. Please review how to read a ruler, conversions, area and perimeter. <br />
<br />
In science, we will continue discussing force and motion.<br />
<br />
There are some tricky IXL lessons that will be due this week. Students have known about these IXL lessons from the beginning of this chapter. If your child is having trouble at home with any of these, they may come in to school early on Tuesday or Thursday morning for some extra help. They may get here at 7:40 and come into my classroom. <br />
<br />
Report cards were posted on Friday. Please let me know if you are having trouble viewing them.<br />

It was nice having time to spend with family and friends, but now it's time to get back to work! Here are some highlights for this week:<br />
<br />
Reading logs for December are due on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
Math: We will continue to work with measurement this week. We will have a test over these concepts next week.<br />
<br />
Science: We have started studying Force and Motion. I have reminded students that they should review the information we go over in class each day. This will make the test a little easier. <br />
<br />
We will be starting a project this week about alternative forms of energy. This will be a group project that will compare and contrast options for alternative forms of energy.

Please help your child stay on track. We will have our Christmas party on Thursday at 1:15. If your child is not caught up on his/her homework, they will need to catch up during the party. <br />
<br />
Social Studies: We will have a vocabulary quiz tomorrow and a Unit 2 test on Wednesday. Hopefully, your child has been studying a little each night to ensure success!<br />
<br />
Math: We will continue with measurement this week. We talked about perimeter last week and will begin area this week. Many students are struggling with conversions. Please practice these at home. We will continue to work on them at school this week and after break.<br />
<br />
Writing: Your child should be prepared for their "How To" demonstration this week. <br />
<br />
The grading period ends on Friday. If your child has anything he/she wants to get regraded, I will need it by Friday. <br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Writer's Workshop: </b> We have begun a "How To" project. Your child should have picked a topic that they can demonstrate to the class.

We will probably have our speeches the week of December 14th. <br />
<br />
<b>Math:</b> We have begun a chapter on measurement. (Chapter 11) Please help your child review measurement skills at home. Also, please help your child stay up to date on his/her IXL lessons.<br />
<br />

<b>Don't forget</b>....November reading logs are due tomorrow!<br />
<br />
<b>Field Trip: </b> We will be going to the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore for a field trip on December 10. Your child will bring home a permission slip today. This MUST be signed and returned by Thursday. If are you interested in chaperoning the field trip, please send me a note. I will need 3 parents. If I have more than 3 volunteers, I will have a drawing. Please let me know if you have any questions.<br />

<br />
Literacy: Your child should be reading at home. Their goal is to read 420 minutes by the end of the month. Their reading logs will be due next week. We will continue to work in small reading groups to help develop skills at each student's level.<br />
<br />
Writer's Workshop: We will continue with our small moment stories. Last week your child should have picked a particular small moment that they will want to publish.<br />
<br />
Word Study: Today we will begin working in our small groups. Each group will be working on a different skill. Each day in school, they will have a different activity to do with these words. Every few weeks or so, the students will be tested on these skills to ensure retention.<br />
<br />
Math: We started guided math groups last week and it went rather well. Students are grouped by ability, according to their pretest. Each day they will work in 2-3 different stations. They will also have homework that will come home today, that will be due on Friday.<br />
<br />
Health: We will have a test over our "Community Safety" packet tomorrow. Students should bring their packets with them to school. <br />
<br />
