Fifth Grade Fairy Tale Literary Reviews

Hello Everyone!

Hello Everyone!

Next week the HIS Drama Club will be performing Matilda at the Science Park Theatre on Thursday and Friday evening. We hope you are able to come and support these young performers as they showcase their talents!

While Drama Club students are involved in final dress rehearsals and performances next week we will not be covering any new material. Students will be occupied with review and discussion so Drama club students will not be expected to catch up on what they have missed.

This week in Math we wrote our Chapter 16 test today, and next week we will review concepts from throughout the year.   In Language Arts we learned about our new theme, Animal Encounters.  We learned new vocabulary, and read the story A Grizzly Family Album.   We have also begun the writing a persuasive essay.  In Science we wrapped up Chapter 11: The Solar System, and in Social Studies we finished learning about the branches of the US government.

If you would like to preview anything with your son or daughter, we will be doing the following next week:

Math:
  • Review
Language Arts

· Review   

 Social Studies
  • Review
Science
·         Review

Ways you can help your child over the Weekend:
  • Encourage your son or daughter to read twenty minutes a day in English.
A friendly reminder to everyone that class starts at H.I.S. at 8:20 AM.  Students should arrive before 8:20 AM so they have time to unpack their bags and be ready to learn at 8:20 AM.

Have a great weekend,

Patrick Holt
