Anyone who would like to volunteer on May 24th, please e-mail Mrs. Cavoto ccavoto@ccsd66.org or Mrs. Sulima Ssulima@ccsd66.org to let them know.
Math This week in math we will have a quiz over diving 2 digit numbers with one digit numbers with and without remainders on Tuesday, May 17. This is lesson 11.1 and 11.3 in their textbook. Any help you can give your child is greatly appreciate. I will let them use their fact chart for this, but they have to know the steps in long division.
Reading - Next week we will focus on the reading target skill of comparing and contrasting. Comparing means showing similarities. Contrasting means showing differences. By comparing and
contrasting one thing with another, readers can remember more of the information.
Spelling - Next week our words will be a review. The pre-test will be on Monday and the test on Friday.
English- This week we will continue working with pronouns. The students will use I and me correctly. They will also use and write singular and possessive pronouns correctly in sentences. A test is planned for Tuesday, May 24 over pronouns.
Science - The students will review how to identify minerals next week. They will then be given minerals to identify. They will understand and identify the different types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. We will have rock day on Wednesday of this week. The students should bring in a rock that they find in the yard or at the park.
Social Studies - The students will study the culture of the Navajo people. They will describe the "Long Walk" and they will understand how the Navajo Council governs th Navajo Nation.
