Week of May 16-20

We had a wonderful visit to the Shedd Aquarium yesterday!  The students had a blast and were so engaged! Thank you to Juliana's mom and Joseph's mom for chaperoning our students!
Our pen pal letters have been delivered to our second graders.  We can’t wait until they visit on 5/27!  
Coming up next week:
Spelling:   On Monday, your child will receive his/her very last spelling sort.  Please make sure your child completes 3 activities for next week.

Reading & Language Arts: We will be doing a writing narrative piece with our favorite story: The One and Only Ivan. Students can choose to write a prequel piece or sequel to the book.

May logs will be due at the end of the month.  Cursive workbooks are due (finished) on or before May 27.   They will be graded for completion!!

Social Studies:  We will start a new chapter: chapter 12 Economics. Students will start this chapter by growing up and becoming an adult. They will get a job and have to make some financial decisions while learning to write checks and pay bills!


Science:   We will continue our unit on Ecosystems.  

Mrs. Mandru's Math Class:  Our Unit 7 test will be on Wednesday, 5/18.  Please make sure your child completes the pre-test (study guide) that will be coming home today.  We’ll correct it together on Tuesday as a review.   We start our final unit on Thursday.
