Today we worked very hard to prepare for our Chapter 2 social studies test TOMORROW. Students CAN use their books to look up answers during the test, but study guides will NOT be allowed. Study guides were sent home on Monday, and a review page was completed in class today. All students should be going home with the correct answers on today's social studies review page, as we did correct all of the answers together in preparation for tomorrow's test. Tomorrow's test will be the last social studies grade of the first trimester. This was an action-packed unit that covered hundreds of years of history.
We also are starting a unit on sea turtles which we will continue next week in reading. Today we read a National Geographic Explorer magazine article about sea turtles, and next week we will be reading "Emerald's Eggs" in our Storytown book. We are also creating a sea turtle display board to show visitors during the Family Reading Night.
Our spelling test will be on Friday. We are currently on unit 11. Here's a link to the word lists:
