Reading:  Students will answer text dependent questions about The Mysterious Giant of Barletta.  We will also work on finding answers in nonfiction text.   There will be a weekly vocabulary quiz on Friday, April 17th.


English: We will work on writing a story from Cow O'Leary's point of view on how the Great Chicago Fire started.  



Math: We finished the study of topic 11.  Students were given a short study guide which should be completed by Monday, April 13th.  There will be a topic 11 quiz on Tuesday, April 14th.  Students also were sent home with a sheet explaining the geometry project we are mostly working on in class.  Students can gather pictures from home, if they choose, to bring to school to help them complete their project.  



Students have completed all of their multiplication tests.  We are now working on timed division tests. Some students still need to pass their divided by 2 test. Students who have already passed the test, will move on to their divided by 5 test.  They will have 3 minutes to complete 24 problems.  Students will have 5 days to pass each multiplication test which they take daily.  If they pass in less than 5 days then they will move on to a new fact.  Students should be practicing their facts every night.  

Things to Remember: 
Tuesday  4/14:  There will be a topic 11 quiz.  

Friday 4/17:  There will be a spelling test and a weekly word test.
