Due Date: By Wednesday, June 2, 2010
Don’t forget to return permission slips for Mission Mill Museum (plus $5.00).
Assignments for this week:
*Family Writing and Literacy:
Canceled for this week! Instead, students are to make sure their parts in the play we’ve been working on are memorized. Students may take their plays home, but must bring them back to school each day.
Salem History Long Term Project:
A list of project ideas was sent home, and they are to be completed at home. I’d like for your child to choose among this list of projects or create a project idea of his/her own. Fill out and turn in the sheet titled “Salem Project Learning Contract” by May 19. By June 9, all projects should be completed. We’ll be sharing the projects in class beginning June 9. If you need materials for projects, please let me know.
Thanks to the parents who have already taken their children on great field trips around Salem, collecting information! The students came back to school on Monday, excited to share what they saw and learned.
Math:
Multiplication timed tests have slipped again! Students need to be working on their facts at home! I’ve provided a sheet for practice. The sheet does not need to be returned. It’s great for practice at anytime (even during the summer!).
* Multiplication problems—Have your child continue to work with the multiplication flashcards that you made. Practice and memorize a few problems each day. Keep reviewing the ones learned from the previous day. Work everyday for about 10 minutes.
Science:
Do “Discovery Student Center with Assignments”, a link on our Blog site. Please have your child complete the “Animal” assignment on the site, if you have internet access.
*Read 30 minutes at home each day. The bookmark needs to be filled out and returned. Ask your child to retell important parts of the story that were read that day.
