May 16 to 20

Hello!  We will be finishing our standardized testing this week!  Yippee!  The students have been doing SO WELL on them.  They have had very positive attitudes and incredible focus.  I am so proud of how far they have come this year in their learning. The students will be completing their SRI Reading tests in order to evaluate their spring Lexile scores.  They will also be finishing their NWEA MAP Math tests.

Reading: The students will be reading The Trumpet of the Swan with the whole class. We will be doing daily activities that reinforce our reading, including using maps and directions, drawing pictures to imagine what happens, and predicting what will happen next.

Math: We are going to be finishing our practice with fractions, introducing perimeter and area, and completing the NWEA MAP test.

Science/Research: Each student will be researching an animal and its adaptations.  They will be recording what they learn, and they will then create a google slide presentation.

Spelling: No spelling this week.

Please note that different grade levels have various field days.  Our field day will be from 1:00-2:15 on Friday, May 27th.  This is a change from previous years.

Have a delightful week!
Miss Kimpton
