This week's update

Hello everyone!

Tomorrow the book reports are due.  Extra copies can be downloaded from the forms link on the side of the blog.  We started a new vocabulary unit (Unit 6 in the orange vocabulary book), and we will have a vocabulary test next Wednesday before we leave for winter break. 

The kids are actively working on their explorers project in class, and we want to get to the point where all they will have to do when they get back from winter break is type. 

The states quiz (take 2!) will be on Friday. 

Also, our class is collecting tzedakkah to help rebuild the forests that have been destroyed in Israel's recent wildfire.  We will be collecting through Friday of this week.

Have a great Wednesday!

The Fifty Nifty States! (Take 2!)

Our 2nd quarter states quiz is this Friday! Students will be tested on both the location and the spelling on the fifty states (just like last time!) While there will be no formal Social Studies homework, students are expected to study throughout the week.

Some great websites to ease the studying are:

• Sheppard Software
• Name that State
• The USA Game
• Conquer the States
