MATH

We unfortunately missed math today due to our monthly awards and house games during announcements. We will pick up Data Management next week!

LANGUAGE

Today the students wrote their spelling test for lesson 11. I will mark them for next week and send them home for you to look at. Please sign them and send them back! Thank you in advance! We worked on our good copy of our speech and those who have already completed their good copy began memorizing.

I would like the good copy of the speeches to be done for Monday so we can begin to memorize next week. Parents please help your children in anyway possible. I am looking for hook (something to grab the audiences attention), an introduction telling us their topic, paragraphs talking about different things about their topic (for example if they are talking about hockey some paragraphs they may want to talk about are rules, equipment, different leagues, etc). I then would like a closing statement tying everything in.

U.O.I.

We read some information on the Feudal System and then the students filled out a Feudal System pyramid and some fill in the blanks.

Working hard on their timeline for Medieval Times!
