Tuesday, February 13, 2024 Homework
We will be attending Mass on tomorrow this week for Ash Wednesday. Please join us at 8:30am and receive your ashes as well.
Math - None (In Math today we took our Chapter 8 Math Test...they did a great job. Tests will come home on Friday, but all grades are in PowerSchool already. Tomorrow, we will start Chapter 9 on adding and subtracting fractions.)
Science - None - Schiff Only (Today they worked on a Valentine’s Day Webquest where they had to look up certain websites to answer the questions being asked in each section. Miss Bubis's class did this yesterday. Science test is on Wednesday, Feb. 14th and they are overly ready for it.)
Social Studies -None, but D.O.G. is due by Friday (Today we continued researching on the 3 country's each student picked to do their project on. I gave them packets to fill in information and then we will turn them into google slides.
Also...I have already provided many resources (songs, games, etc..) in Google Classroom for students to start practicing their state capitals for our test on 2/29/24. Please practice and we will practice with worksheets in class as well starting this week.)

Upcoming events:
~ Field Trip on May 2nd to Kenosha Public Museum to learn about Native American tribes that lived in Wisconsin and also dissecting Owl Pellets. We also have another Field Trip on May 22nd to the Civil War Museum in Kenosha. More info to come for chaperoning by our Room Parent's. Field Trip forms to come home in April. So excited for these opportunities of enrichment.
~ After much research on my end, I have decided to end this year in Science with a bit of Biology. I surprised the students and told them that we will be dissecting a crayfish and an earthworm in May sometime. I would say 99% of them were so excited about this. A couple were not thrilled with the idea. Please know that this will not be graded, nor would I make any student do something they do not want to do or feel comfortable doing. This is strictly for fun and is totally optional. If they choose to not participate, they can come to the Science lab with us and read a book in the hallway. I'm very excited about this opportunity for the students.
