Week of November 30 - December 4

It's back to school already! I hope that you all had a marvelous break and time of thanksgiving to the Lord for all that He has given us! What a perfect season to bring us into Christmas time!

This week is back to our normal routine with a variety of tests, homework, etc See below:

Reminders:

1)NO blue weekly papers will be sent home on Monday!

2)November Outside Reading Confirmation Forms are due on Tuesday.

Monday:
Your child will receive their practice Math Test 11A. This is what they need to know for their Math Test on Wednesday.

Your child can receive extra science credit if they bring in a bird nest (for Tuesday) that has been undisturbed for some time now (i.e. birds migrated for winter).

Tuesday:
History Test 4 - This test was postponed until after break for numerous reasons. Please have your child study and sing the song again! We will be working a little more in class on Monday in preparation for test.

Wednesday:
Math Test 11 - Study Practice Test and rework any missed homework problems in binder.
Vocabulary Test on Unit 7 - Study all words, definitions, and synonyms, and antonyms. Visit www.sadlier-oxford.com for fun vocabulary review games, as well as, a way to print out flash cards.

Thursday:
Practice Spelling Test on List 13

Friday:
Spelling Test on List 13
Cumulative States and Capitals Test for all 3 regions that we have been studying. These regions include: Northeast, Southeast, and Southwest regions. Students will be tested on each state and capital. Each state will be numbered and they will have to write each state and capital on a separate piece of paper. KNOWING where each state and capital belongs in a major part of their grade. 1 point will be deducted per misspelled state/capital, 3 points will be deducted per state that is switched with another state/capital. Study Advice: Number each state that will be tested on a blank map, then have your child fill out that practice test, writing each state/capital on another sheet of paper.

Happy studying!

Love,

Mrs. Traylor
