This week the students will be taking the county Check-point test on the new I-Respond system.This will be given on Wednesday/Thursday (Block Days) in order that they have ample time for this 2-part test. The information covered is what has been taught (and hopefully learned!) from August through November.
Spelling Words were given out last week and the test is this Friday. Students also have 3 tasks to complete with the words---ABC order, write 10 sentences combining 10 spelling words with a subordinating conjunction, and dictionary practice. This is all due by Dec. 9th.
Our next writing is Compare-contrast--the students will be given several topics from which to choose and we will go to the library for our research. This must be completed before the Winter Break---Dec.22.
Please ask to see your child's Language Arts Binder---it should be in order, with a Table of Contents and completed work pages. This organizational skill is vital to their learning the abundance of information presented to them.
