Derry Updates for the week October 26th

I hope everyone had a great weekend. I can't believe that October is coming to a close. This week is getting underway with the Pumpkin projects coming in today. Everyone is excited to see the pumpkin creations and the student's were real proud of their hard work. As a parent, I know that you guys have to put in some effort as well, so thanks for being so amazing!

Here is what's going on this week:

ELA: We are starting a new story Horses Heroes. We will be discussing fact and opinion, and working on possessive plural nouns.

Math: Topic 5: Multiplying and Rounding

Science: We will begin our new unit...check out the Blog PAGE!!  Students will be taking notes and the textbook will be a great resource for some of this material.  Mrs. Fortson will upload material as she get's it scanned into the computer.

Social Studies: We are finishing up with the Colonies. Mrs. Derry's class is taking a quiz tomorrow on labeling the New England, Middle, and Southern Colonies. Mrs. Fortson's class will do this on Thursday. Both classes will take a content test on Friday.

Late work: I have a sheet that students will sign and date when they are missing work. This is just another way for parents to beware that something is missing. 



Here are our awesome pumpkins:
