Important
Progress reports are going home today. I got sick last week and couldn't get them out until now. Please sign the newsletter that went home to confirm having recieved your student's report.

Upcoming Dates
§  February 10th is a minimum day.

§  February 12th and 15th, we have no school.

§  February 26th is the end of the trimester.

New
In ELA, we will be finishing our informational essays on a rule to live by.

In social studies we have homework. Students will use their notes to write about Chinese history from the fall of the Han dynasty through the invasion of the Mongols.

In science, we will be discovering the process of fossil creation.

Updates and Info
Students presented their advertising commercials for an invention from the Han, Tang, or Song Chinese dynasties. The commercials were great! Students also analyzed a model informational essay, collected evidence for their "rule to live by", outlined their essay and began writing!


Scholastic book orders went home today. Orders must be returned for Thursday. Rainy day books galore!
