Extra Notes: 9/11-9/15

Social Studies
We have finished up chapter 1 and your kids all did well on their tests.  They will be coming home this Friday.  We will take a break from doing Social Studies every morning and will be moving this class to the afternoon for a few weeks.  We will be doing some Missouri History in between each chapter of our Social Studies book.

Science
We have begun our first investigation in Science that revolves around soil.  We are looking at different types of soil and investigating what causes each type to form.  We will be doing Science every day in the mornings for the next couple of weeks.

Reading Notebooks
During our reading block each day, the kids record notes, write responses, and log their reading in their Reader's Notebooks.  This notebook will not go home most of the time as it is intended for use in class.  The expectation is that your kids are following along in class and keeping their notebooks up to date.  We have set up a rotation of days for your kids to have their notebooks checked each week.  The list is posted in each classroom and checklists are handed out each week so that they can be prepared to turn in their notebooks on their assigned day.  If they are absent, they will need to check with a teacher or classmate to get the information they missed in class.

Book Orders
Just a reminder that book orders are due September 27th.  You can do this online at https://clubs.scholastic.com/  or by turning in the paper order form.
