May 15th --May 19th

Dates To Note:

Monday: Reading Focus: Test Taking Strategies

Thursday: Word Study Test

Friday: READING SOL



     We will have our first SOL test this Friday. Testing will begin at approximately 8:30. Students have as much time as they need to complete the test. You can help at home by keeping this week as normal as possible. Lots of rest and good foods including protein help children focus and work hard. 
Math News
     The Math SOL will be taken next week and is broken into two days, computation on Wednesday and calculator permitted section on Thursday.  

Reading
     Fantasy books are moving quickly. The students are doing a great deal of reading every day, building some excellent reading stamina. We have been focusing on cause and effect and fact opinion as we read. Ask your child if they have been a good reading detective and found both of those as they have been reading.  

Writing News
     Fiction stories are under way! I am so excited to reading this fun and creative stories. 
Science
     This week your children will be preparing their own weather forecast based upon a map. We will be using the Green Screen App on the iPads to make a video of each weather forecast.
