Fun Friday

Today the students received a field trip permission slip for our upcoming field trip to the Kent County Recycling and Education Center. Hopefully you received that from them. Please return that slip by Thursday, Nov. 10. 
Bible- Today the students completed their New Testament Books Bible Memory Quiz. They all did very well! We will investigate maps on Monday then begin Unit 5 on Tuesday.
Math- Today the students took their Unit 3 Assessment. We will begin Unit 4 on Monday.
Literacy- Today the students took their Unit 8 Spelling Words and Skills Test. We also viewed a folktale story presented in video form. We completed a grammar mini lesson about Linking and Action Verbs. Finally, we read our Prompt Practice Stories to one another.
Social Studies- The students were given time to work together with their group members to begin creating their posters about Jacques Marquette and other explorers who came to Michigan.
Science- Today in science we completed an activity that allowed us to look at solid things that many people would throw away and bring to a landfill. We discussed together the idea that if we take our time and decide what things can be recycled or reused, we can reduce the negative effects that trash has on the environment.
The students have no homework over the weekend! Enjoy!
