Tomorrow is our last day of ERB testing. YEA! I think the children are over having our mornings interrupted with testing!
Tonight's responsibilities include:
Math... Home Link page 183.. They also have an assigned letter of the alphabet. They are to come up with as many words as possible that relate to math that begin with that letter. I told them to come with their list on Friday.
Wordly Wise... our words for Lesson 11 are as follows: diagram, frustrate, frustrating, graduate, prank, primary, risk, risky, stress, urge, vacant, vigorous. Tonight they are answer the first 5 questions on Meeting a Firefighter.
Study spelling words: ankle, battle, bottle, jumble, jungle, kettle, middle, mumble, pebble, sample, settle, simple, single, temple, wriggle
Reading...make a list of their top choices of chapter books that they have read in third grade... they cannot include class novels or picture books.
We are zipping across the oceans studying the many explorers from Europe. You will want to ask them about Magellan's voyage around the world. Ask them if he returned to Europe with his crew. There will be an independent project coming home at the end of the week that will include the details. Some of the project will be completed at home and some of it at school and the children will have input in the goals and design of this project.
I forgot to tell the children.. tomorrow is that famous May 5, Cinco De Mayo. The children are allowed to wear a sombrero or colorful poncho if they have it. We had chatted about this on Monday, but I don't think the children will remember.
