Each week we will be reading a few chapters in class and completing chapter quizzes. Students are allowed to re-read what we have covered in class, but I ask that they do no read ahead unless they have been given special permission to do so. Please be sure to ask your child questions on what we have read in class and allow them to summarize and describe different events in detail and in order.

SPELLING– Since we have a short week, we will not be having any spelling test.

MATH – We are having our Math Chapter 8 test on Wednesday, so we will be spending time reviewing division this week.
