October 24 - 28, 2016

Hello!  I hope everyone had a great weekend.

3rd grade:  Last Thursday we started our study of La Casa (the house) and our review of Los Colores (the colors).  We have completed WB p 19, and they were given about ten minutes in class today to complete a House Activity.  They should draw and label each room, plus the garden (in Spanish), and then color it.  There are five sentences that tell them what color certain items should be, but other than those, they can color everything else any color they would like.  It will be due Thursday, so encourage them to work on it during Lyceum and not to wait until Wednesday.  I had several students complete the activity in the ten minutes given, so it should not be a time consuming activity.  This Thursday, we will be learning how to say that we like something, and if we have time, a little more about Argentina.  

4th grade:  Last Friday, we learned some new prepositions of place and also some stores and other locations found in our neighborhoods.  We will add in some house vocabulary on Tuesday, and we will do a couple readings to practice them.  On Friday, we will do a "Design your own neighborhood" activity, which will be homework if it's not completed in class.

5th grade:  Last Friday, we reviewed colors and clothing.  We will add in some weather vocabulary on Tuesday, and will do a couple readings to practice them.  On Friday, we will do an activity in which the students can design their own clothing store.  It will be homework if it's not completed in class.

Happy Friday before Fall Break!!!

I just wanted to let you know that everyone took their tests this week, and I graded them and sent them home yesterday and today.  I asked the students to put them in their take home folders, so hopefully you will be able to review their tests with them.

Overall, I was very pleased with the exam grades, and I am looking forward to second quarter!

Have a WONDERFUL fall break.  :)
