Math Topic 5 is dividing with bigger numbers!

We will review on
Wednesday and take the test on Thursday.
Reading Next our story is A Summers Trade. Tony and his family live
on the Navajo Indian Reservaton. Tony has been saving his money to
buy a saddle so he can ride horses with his father. Then Tonys uncle
breaks his leg and cannot support his family. Tonys grandma sells her
beautful silver bracelet in order to help Tonys family. When Tony sees
how sad this makes her, he uses the saddle money to buy the bracelet
back for her. She is overjoyed and plans to make a rug to trade for a sad-
dle for Tony.
GrammarWe be learning about conjunctons this week. We
should be able to identfy them and use them correctly afer

Writng We are practcing opinion or persuasive writngs by
writng debates on topics the student has chosen. I cant wait
to hear their debates.
Spelling Our list focuses on the endings. Practce! Remem-
ber these words can be found on Spelllingcity/triton 5.
Social Studies I was disappointed in the Natve American
test. Therefore, I ofered a retest of the exact same test. Stu-
dents stll did not do well and some chose not to retake the
test at all. This unit will have a traditon study guide. Hopeful-
ly, we will have beter results, but you have to study!!
Science We took a unit 1 test this week. I wasnt pleased
with the results. Extra Credit will be ofered in the form of ob-
servaton of the moon. Students may observe and record ob-
servatons of the moon for extra credit. They can see me for a
calendar to help them stay on task. Id like them to observe
the moon for 1 month.
