~~~~~~ Happy New Year!  Welcome back! ~~~~~~

Here are a few things to remember as we continue our school year: 

  • Every student should have a King James Bible at school. We have a memory verse quiz every Friday, beginning January 10th. 
  • We are constantly short on pencils, so please send some in soon.  We will be learning/practicing cursive penmanship and sharp pencils are important.  
  • Over the next two weeks, we will be doing a habitat diorama with partners. Each group will need to coordinate gathering supplies. Every group needs a shoebox, but other supplies will depend on which habitat they choose to create. We will decide on Monday or Tuesday. 
  •  Every class has tests and quizzes regularly. Please ask your child what they should be studying. They should have a good idea of what is coming up if they are listening in class and staying up on assignments.   
  • Please check the blog often and encourage your child to study and read a little every day to keep up. 

This week's schedule:

We will begin a new book report book.  It will be a biography, and I will provide the book by Wednesday.  They should read a chapter each evening to complete about 5 chapters a week. 

Monday- Copy the Spelling List twice. I will share this week's list in a separate blog and print it for the students.  It is not in the book this week.  

                Finish History classwork if needed.  

Tuesday- Math P. 340 L. 73. 

                Read in Book Report Book and in In His Hands if not complete in class.

Thursday- Math-Review sections from classwork that were troublesome. 

                 Spelling- Copy missed words from today's trial test
