I’m looking forward to seeing all of our scholars’ Europe Country Projects this week! Projects presentations will be on Tuesday and Wednesday, and you see can see the presentation schedule here!
If you are planning on attending any of the presentations, please send me (TMartin@ArchwayArete.org) and Mrs. LaVell (RLavell@ArchwayArete.org) both an email so we can let the front office know how many visitors to expect. If you are bringing in a food item (either store bought or homemade), you must include the ingredients list for dietary purposes. Thanks!
This Week:
Math: Students will continue learning about fractions as we learn what mixed numbers are and how to add and subtract fractions with mixed numbers.
Grammar: Students will take their Grammar test on compound sentences on Tuesday, November 13. On Thursday and Friday of this week, we will be doing our first writing workshop!
Spalding: There will be no Spalding this week or next week with the shortened weeks. We will continue with Spalding the week following Thanksgiving. We will typically study 30 words every week; however, this is subject to change by a word or two from week to week depending on word groupings. A family member should dictate the words to the student each night for homework. Students will review words on Thursday and take the final test on Friday.
Science: We will continue working through our fourth science unit, Meteorology!
History: Europe Project presentations will be on Tuesday and Wednesday morning this week! There will be no history the rest of the week, but students are permitted to continue working on their chapters 17-21 study guides. More time will be given for study/review next week.
Literature: Students will study setting and characterization as we continue our reading through Robin Hood.
Greek and Latin Roots: This Wednesday, students will be quizzed on roots 35-38 and will learn the next three roots in the set. Students should review roots cards to prepare for their quiz they will take every Wednesday.
I hope you all had a relaxing and enjoyable long weekend! I hope to see some of you for presentations this week.
--Mrs. Conforti
