Science-
This week we will work on the Plants packet. The test for this packet will cover the whole packet rather than being broken down into two tests. Students will receive a more detailed than usual test format later this week. I am also giving "hints" while checking in class. Homework each night is to study! The Endocrine System test will no go home with STP's tomorrow as I still have two people who need to make it up. I will send it home as soon as I can.

English-
Spiral #16 is due Friday. PLEASE check you child's work before they turn it in. Recent scores indicate that they are not coming to you....so please ask them about it!
Tuesday and Wednesday we will work on the last two rough draft paragraphs for the research paper. Rough draft will come home at the end of the week to by typed or neatly handwritten. Please DO NOT change anything in your child's paper. I know the work might not be up to your standards, but please remember this is the first time they have done this. I have made corrections/suggestions on all rough drafts. These are the only changes that should be made on the final draft. Please e-mail me if you have any questions about this.

English-
Students have been working hard on rough drafts of reserach paper paragraphs. This week we will focus on getting all 6 rough drafts completed and turned in. I will proofread ALL paragraphs with students before work is sent home to be typed for the final draft to be turned in. Tentative due date for final draft is February 25.

Homeroom

Friday, February 11 is Pep Rally day. Students may wear their orange spirit shirts.

My favorite holiday is almost here! On Monday, I will allow students to exchange Valentines. We WILL NOT have a party. If students wish to bring Valentines, it would be best if they just sign their name and not address each card to classmates. If students prefer to bring candy, that is fine. There are 31 students in the class and remember NO NUT products! Let me know if you have any questions. =)

February 7-11, 2011

English- This week students will take information gathered so far and begin writing research paper rough draft. All work will be done in class. Students will work on Wordly Wise when done each day. The Unit is due at the end of the week. Spiral # 15 is due Friday.

Science- The test on the Endocrine System notes is Wednesday, February 16. The 13 vocab. words will be matching and the labeling section comes from the Location, Location, Location worksheet in the packet. The 18 multiple choice will come from notes and presentations.

This week students will begin work on group projects/presentations. Each student will be given the opportunity to choose their groupmates. Each group will be given a disorder dealing with a gland of the Endocrine System. Students have a handout guiding them as to what infomation needs to be included in the presentation. Students will have Tuesday-Friday in class to work on this project. This should not require meetings at home or stress for parents!! As 5th graders, we are looking for the most basic information about the disorder. If you have any questions, please let me know.

January 31-February 4, 2011

Science- This week we will work on our Endocrine System packet. There is no book being used with this packet. Students will take notes from the SMART Board. Homework each night is to study/review everything in the packet up to that point.
