Happy Friday

We had a great week this week in Room 6.  I think we got to everything I wanted to get done!!!!  That is a reason to Celebrate and now we are all ready for the weekend!!!!!  I hope you had a great discussion about your child's report card with them and what they need to do to maintain their amazing grades and/or what they need to do to bring them up.  This doesn't only include the academics, but the social skills/organization, and study habits as well.
This next week we are going to be finishing up our Geometry unit in math and assess all the geometry terms by drawing and labeling them. We will also assess on area & perimeter with a fun project that also relates to our Space Unit in Lead 21!!!   We will continue to practice division & multiplication as well.
In Lead 21, we are going to finish up our informational text on space.  Students are also going to be finishing up their science reports of their topic of choice.  We are typing them in Microsoft Word which has been great keyboarding practice for us.  Then we will be going into Realistic Fiction in Selection 3 which will also be space related stories.  In whole group, we will be reading the biography/journals of Galileo.
In Language, we will continues with kinds of adjectives.
Spelling-Unit 20 word list
Science-we are moving from magnets to electricity where we will create static electricity as well as make an electrical circuit.
Reminders for the end of the week:  Science Night on Friday, January 30 as well as BUG/Terrific Kids awards.  If your child is receiving an award you are welcome to attend.
Have a FABULOUS weekend.
