January 17-21

Greetings and Salutations!

I’ve included a very special picture at the end of this post from our trip to Old Alabama Town.  They usually don’t let groups sit in the desks at the schoolhouse.  However, they were kind enough to let us.  The man standing in the back portrays the original schoolmaster and does a marvelous job whipping the kids into shape.  Mark your calendars for January 24-28th… the Book Fair will be in town! 

Spelling: Unit 21… Our test will be on Friday.
Reading: Bound for Oregon  We will try to finish the book.
Language:  Unit 4 “Adjectives”  p. 141-145… We will shoot to have a test on Unit 4 on Thursday, January 27th.
Bible: Exodus 2-4
Math: We will have a test on 1-digit division tomorrow Tuesday, January 18th.  The students have known about this test since last week.  We will be skipping division with 2-digit divisors for a bit and come back to it.  We will start Chapter 17, “Plane Figures,” on Wednesday completing pages 320-325.
Science: We will finish electromagnets on Tuesday.  We will begin Chapter 4, “The Human Body,” on Wednesday starting with pages 184-185.
History:  We will finish our Pioneer Flip Charts and begin the second part of Chapter 7 on pages 144-159.

Enjoy your week!
