CONFERENCES
This week, I will send out the signup genius for the mandatory 1st semester
conferences. This will be a great time of discussion about your child. Please
start thinking of any questions you may have.
We are in need of the following supplies: tissues, whiteboard
erasers, lined loose-leaf paper
This week we will study the following:
Language Arts: Students will write an expository essay. This will be a great
opportunity for students to work on paragraph structure, word connections, and
improvement in vocabulary.
Science: This exciting unit on meteorology continues this week as
students will learn about tornadoes and hurricanes. I will share some
experiences from storm chasing and students will see the destruction that is possible
from these powerful storms.
History: We continue our study on China. I have brought in some extra information and detailed stories for the students. This is a quick unit, but the students should exit with a small understanding of some of the major dynasties.
