Update for 2/12

       Dear Parents,

       This week the students will continue to work on their literary essays about either the story "Scuttlebutt" or "The Last Kiss" while comparing them to our rubrics.  In math, we have a 5.2 test on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions on Wednesday.  We have also been working on these standards as well in our Tiger Time for all students since the Milestones in April will cover the 5th grade standards. In 6.2 math we also will have our test this Wednesday on our Algebra unit.  Study guides for 5.2 and 6.2 will be due Wednesday morning.

      In Social Studies, we are continuing to study the Cold War and will have a quiz this Wednesday.  At the end of the week, we will study the Civil Rights movement and our Cold War/Civil Rights test over this time period will be next Wednesday, 2/21.

     Our Valentine's Day centers are this Wednesday from 11:45-12:45.  I e-mailed out a class list if your child would like to bring in a card/treat for all 21 students.  Next week on Thursday, 2/22 we have our field trip to the Alliance Theater. 

     Please let me know if you have any questions!
