Important
Thank you for all the sponsors. Please ensure money is collected and brought to school!

I'm attaching the packing list for the field trip. Please remember we will be leaving promptly at 8:00 am on Oct. 7th with an approximate return time of 8:00 pm on Oct. 9th.

Graded work was sent home Friday and more will be sent home this Friday as well.

Keep study habits and homework consistency strong by checking in on Student Planners.

Upcoming Dates
Oct. 7-9 Field Trip! Leaving at 8 am and returning at 8 pm. We will be calling families on our way home to confirm arrival

New
We will finish Bud, Not Buddy this week! Students will take a test on the book so check in that they are caught up.

Students will soon be picking their own books and articles to read and will need parent signatures for reading minutes.

In social studies, we will  continue to understand how Islam grew.

In science, we will continue exploring weathering and erosion.

Updates and Information
Wow! Our class ran  772 laps for the Run-Walk-A-Thon which works out to about 86 miles! Thank you so much for all the support and sponsors!
This week we had quite a few thoughtful discussions regarding classroom safety and antibullying.

We also analyzed the first stanza of "If" by Rudyard Kipling, learned about the origins and beliefs of Islam, and sorted earth material using Wentworth's Scale of Particle Size.

The trimester is nearly halfway done! I will be sending home progress reports next week.
