Week of November 2 - 6

Some of you have noticed that I have not posted for this week! It just depends on the week and what God has put in my life to do! Thankfully this has really be a great week and we are doing all kinds of fun things! In Science today, we started Unit 3 on Birds and the kids had so many bird stories to tell me that truly were fascinating! We looked up scripture on Birds and it was so neat that all of them found different ones to talk about! Can you believe how our Savior even takes care of the sparrows of the air? What a mighty God we serve!

Anyways, this week is pretty light as far as tests go! (I can hear the children cheering now!)

On Wednesday, the students have a Math Test. Use the Practice Test 9A as a guide. The test is basically a look alike with different problems, so if they have any questions, look them up in the book!

We also have their Practice Spelling Test on Wednesday, due to the short week. No school on Friday!

Thursday we have a Spelling Test on list 11.


In other news, Mrs. Lucas pointed out the following (from the beginning of the year packet concerning vocabulary words that I gave you):

This is a website that has been helpful in the past: www.sadlier-oxford.com. The student should choose the student section-blue level (we are currently on Unit 6).
I tried it out and I know that the kids would LOVE doing this! They have hangman, crossword puzzles, memory matching with the antonyms and synonyms, etc. They also have Word Cards (flash cards) that they could print out, cut up, and write the definition on the back to practice! So if you have some that love computer games, this would be a great outlet for that!

Thanks so much for sharing this with us again!

Please have a blessed week and remember that there is NO SCHOOL on Friday!

Love,

Mrs. Traylor
