In writing this week we have started our Opinion/Persuasive letters. We have been working on two different letters in class. First, students are writing me a letter telling me why I should give them $10 in Maui Money. That letter is due tomorrow. Next, students are writing a letter as if they were a turkey that has been captured for Thanksgiving Dinner, and they are trying to persuade the family that has caught them to not eat them. This letter is due on Friday.
In math we have taken our Place Value Test. Tomorrow we will be starting our next unit on Equivalent Fractions. This will build off of our previous unit on fractions.
In Social Studies we are beginning our study of Utah's Counties and County Seats. Before Christmas Break, students will have a test on these. They must have them memorized; they have to find the county on the map and match the county with its county seat on the back. This week we are making study guides that are EXACTLY like the test will be so that students can start studying them. The closer it gets to the test, we will start having quizzes on the counties as well.
Lastly, don't forget about the school movie party on Friday. We will be watching Planes at Orem High. PM students should come to school at 9 AM so that we can leave to the busses at 9:15. If students are late, they will be left. If you do not want your student to attend please return the form sent home to let us know that your student will not be coming with us and needs to stay at school.
