Hold on Tight!

Families of Room 31 ~

The end of the trimester is fast approaching which means there are many assessments taking place.  This will also mean that our homework routine may be a bit different.

MEDIA - We have MEDIA on Monday.   Please make sure all books are returned.

HEALTH ASSESSMENT - Mrs. LeMay sent home a study packet and the health papers for the health test on Tuesday.

SCIENCE ASSESSMENT - Friday November 22nd.
The students will be taking their assessment on ROCKS and MINERALS on Friday November 22nd.  As study guide was sent home on Friday.  They will also take home their SCIENCE NOTEBOOKS on Monday.  They need to return these notebooks on the day of the test.  THEY CAN USE THEIR NOTEBOOK to help on the ASSESSMENT!!

I also recommend that the students visit the blog and review the the ROCK and MINERAL sites under the SCIENCE section.  There are great reviews for the ROCK CYCLE too!!

SOCIAL STUDIES ASSESSMENT - This assessment will be given in class on Thursday.  They will use their NOTES and their social studies text book that we have been taking to help with this assessment.  There is NO STUDYING involved in this assessment this trimester!

AUTHORS VISIT - We are fortunate to have author MELISSA STEWART visiting our classroom on Tuesday.  Here is her website for those who may want to explore her books and ideas..  Thanks to the PTO for arranging for this visit!  I can't wait to see what she is going to teach us!
