Spelling For the Week and Other Events
We have had some great things happening lately in our class and more great things coming up!
In Science, students got to play with worms last week. Mr. Bird very nicely brought in some of his compost with a number of beautiful worms. Students did lots of great scientific observations of their worms and learned quite a bit about these simple, yet surprisingly fascinating creatures. They are now in our habitats. This week we should have our next inhabitants for the habitats; our isopods!
In Language Arts, we have finished our writing unit on Ideas with our tragic stories. Students wrote an extremely tragic story about their characters who had almost everything they wanted, except for one thing which they couldn’t get. We will have the stories up on the board soon for you to read.
This week, students will be going skating on Friday. Permission forms will be going home today. Please return them signed and with money (if necessary) as soon as possible.
Here are the spelling words for the week.
Here is the link to Spelling City. Remember to bring in your signed spelling certificate or get your planner signed by your parents showing that you got 100% on the practice quiz to get your bonus mark for the spelling test!
The memory verse for this week is:
If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
