Our Elective schedule has been tweaked slightly. We have split the class in two for Art. This allows more 1 on 1 instruction for the Art teacher, while also giving me an opportunity to review instruction with those who remain in the classroom. Here is your children's Elective Weekly Schedule, as well as a class breakdown for Art. -Mr. Spencer

Yes, there is no homework packet this week. We have Several Tests this week, and I don't want the kiddos burnt out. So we will continue Spelling Next Week. Enjoy the break. :)
We are starting to prepare for the Chapter 1 Math test, and there is much distress in the land. The test will be on Tuesday.
Over the next few days we will work on a Practice test (which will have similar questions but not exact as the real test). I am sending a copy home tonight for each student. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that each of you spend time with your child and go over these concepts. Unless it specifically says with the rounding/estimating, round to the nearest 10. Many problems are story problems, and are multi steps. We are doing the practice in class today, and then reviewing every problem tomorrow to help them understand the concepts. Again the test will be different, but the concepts the same. Each child's success on this difficult test fall on both my and your shoulders.
Dear Parents,
I have sent some different book order sheets home with your kiddos. Also is included a letter explaining how to order online. You may also click on the link with a pic of a school bus below to take you where you need to go. At the beginning of the year, scholastic does a great deal where my classroom can earn books. Below is the chart. I do prefer online orders, because they offer more books and less mess. However if you need to write a check or send cash, I can order for you. Class Code is: PBQGP Mr. Spencer School picture day is Monday. Kiddos need to come in uniform with their smiles bright.
Watch your kiddos backpacks for picture package ordering instructions. Payment information is also included in the packet. They need to bring their money with them on Monday. Retakes are October 27th in case you need to know. Valley Academy now has Fantastic new Valley Academy bumper stickers in the office for $5 each. Get them while their Hot! :)
In your child's backpack you will find a letter from me, as well as a copy of the Mid Chapter Review. We have done this in class, and will have a graded one on Monday. Some of the concepts are tricky and would really appreciate it if you allow your child time to review this worksheet. I have broken down each problem explained what is expected in the letter. This assignment is not due. It is merely giving your child multiple exposures to what we will be working on Monday that counts as a grade. Sincerely, Mr. Spencer |
