Last Day of
School- Friday, May 23rd
Half Days-
5/20-5/23
This week:
History: The next two weeks in history
are very important weeks and should not be missed! Students just finished the American Revolution
Unit. They did very well on their final assessment.
The next two weeks,
students will study the U.S. Constitution. Now that the colonists have won the
war, they are a new nation. How will this nation be governed? This unit
explains it all. Every chapter is so important to cover. There are only 10 days
remaining this year, so we will move briskly through the unit, but it is too
important to skip anything. There will not be a final assessment, but students
will be accountable for certain assignments during the unit.
Language Arts: Students will take one last
grammar test this week. We will begin a read aloud for Carry On, Mr. Bowditch. Students will
complete their stud of the 100 Latin and Greek root words. There will also be a
writing project. It is a 5 paragraph essay. Students do not really write this
large of an essay until middle school, but this will give them some practice.
Science: We will continue the unit on the respiratory system. This promises to be a very interesting unit.
