Curriculum/Classes
Math: You can expect your student to have math homework every night, Mon-Thurs. This should be written in their planner. They ALSO have homework to practice times tables each night. They will complete a practice sheet each night based on the times tables they are currently working on. THIS IS FOR A GRADE, so please make sure that your student completes this each night.
**If your student's math book didn't get covered, here is a link for how to do that with a brown grocery bag!
Language Arts:
Our new curriculum is Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA). It includes Reading, Writing, Grammar, and Spelling. We are excited to dig into this new comprehensive program!
We are on Unit 8: Treasure Island. This will be a fun way to end our year!
History: Our next unit is on Early Presidents, but we will be breaking it up, due to CMAS, for a more hands on/fun look into the Bill of Rights. We will then return to and finish out our unit on the Presidents. Please note that for this unit there will be short weekly quizes rather than a big test, so we will not have study guides, but rather it will be a chance to check in each week to see what students are learning and remembering.
