Weekly Update- August 28, 2011

Your children are amazing!  They have been engaged in their studies and anxious to learn new materials.  Many lessons have been given and weekly spelling, sight words (golden puzzle words), and science experiments are works in progress.  Personal and daily time lines are almost complete as well as their own creation stories.

We will be having Galileo testing for second and third years this week for Reading and Language Arts.  These are benchmark tests that are given by district.  They are not timed and children will work on them in the silent classroom.  Results will be discussed at your parent teacher conferences.  First years will begin land and water forms, continue with igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, and begin the timeline of life with Finneus Fish.  Thanks to you, we have some new classroom pets that will also be introduced this week!  Have a great week and thank you for your wonderful children!

Ms. Silver and Mrs. Gina
