Homework 5-7

-S/V 136-137 on Greek Roots
-Read The Story of Jumping Mouse and work in comprehension packet.  This story should be read each evening in preparation for the Friday test.  You may want to encourage your child to read it to you or a sibling, or read it independently and then retell it to you.  Writing a summary would also be an effective comprehension tool. 
-Math page 106 (Lesson 13-4 on Balancing Equations)
-History Assignment for Mr. Bozek
**Every child in our class made at least 2 of their 3 NWEA personal goals!  That's an awesome accomplishment!**

Tulip Time Schedule

It's a busy Tulip Time week ahead.  Wednesday will be an 11:30 dismissal for choir students, while band students will stay and march in the parade.  On Thursday, all students stay for the full day.  They will either march with the band, march with the school, or remain at school for the afternoon.  Dismissal is following the return to school after the parade.  Band students will remain with Mr. Hyvarinen and choir students will stay with me.  If rain postpones the Thursday parade, it will be rescheduled for Friday.  The same procedures will then apply on Friday.  Band students may wear their band uniform to school on Wednesday and Thursday instead of traditional dress code.  Happy Tulip Time!
