Spelling words, history projects, etc.

Dear Parents,

The math SAGE test for level 3s is this Thursday, May 5 from 9-12.  Please make sure they get a good night’s sleep and a good breakfast.

This week’s spelling words are:

Level 1: skunk, trunk, bunk, stung, rung, lung

Level 2: body, heart, tongue, mouth, oxygen, digest, vein, blood, circulation, stomach, lungs,

Level 3: No spelling words this week due to SAGE math test.

Last week I sent out emails regarding the history research projects assigned to each level.  I am posting that information on the blog as well.  These projects are due the week of May 9.  I will send out the schedule next week.  Please let me know by Wednesday if your child will be doing a power point presentation so I can reserve a projector.

Level 1s:

Each student will choose and research a famous American hero who has died.  I want them to present interesting facts about this person’s life,  and what makes him/her a hero.

Level 2s:

Each level 2 has chosen a planet or something else in space that interests them to research and present to the class.  Here is the list of students and what they have chosen:

Emma—Mercury, Brighton—Pluto, Jaicee—Moon and the Milky Way, Taylor—Saturn, Allie—Venus, Cyan—the Sun, Rigel—Mars, Donovan—Neptune, Auston–Jupiter

Level 3s:

Each level 3 is to choose a dinosaur or other pre-historic animal to research and present.  They need to know what time period the animal lived, where on the Earth it lived, what it ate, and other interesting facts.

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!

Updates

Dear Parents,

There will be no spelling words posted this week.  I want students to be practicing the spelling bee words that I sent home last week.    We will be doing tests in the classroom next week to determine the top three spellers who will move on to the spelling bee on Friday.  Trying out for the spelling bee is optional, but I still want all students to be practicing the words on their level.

Third graders will be taking their SAGE writing test on Tuesday, April 19 from 9-12pm.  Please make sure they are well rested and have had a good breakfast.

Don’t forget to order your child’s yearbook.  Orders must be placed by April 20 –only 5 more days!

Have a great weekend!

Ms. Krista

Thursday’s field trip to Discovery Gateway

Below is the information that was sent home on the field trip waiver.

On Thursday, April 14, 2016, Ms. Krista’s class will be going on a field trip to Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum.  We will be taking the Frontrunner to Salt Lake City.  We will meet at the Ogden front runner station at 8:20. Please be sure to have your child at the station on time.  We will be returning to the Ogden Station about 2:45.    Please be on time to pick-up your child.  They will need to bring a sack lunch and disposable water-bottle.  Please do not send any containers (lunchbag, waterbottles, etc.) that are not disposable.

Thank you,

Ms.Krista
