Dear Families,
In the fifth grade class we have a change jar where we are collecting change for Blessingsinabackpack.org. This is an organization that provides food for needy children. Our goal in our classroom is to raise $80.00 by change alone. I am hoping to demonstrate that small change can make a huge difference in a child’s life. $80.00 will feed a child on the weekend for a 38-week school year.
There will be no P.E. on Thursday. Please have your child wear their regular school uniform. Friday is a full day of school.
Religion: Stations of the Cross will be on Wednesday at 2pm. Please join us if your schedule allows. We will also continue our discussion of the 7 Sacraments.
Math: We will be discussing the meaning and uses of percents and introducing using a calculator to convert decimals to percents. The assignment for IXl math is L.4, Convert between improper fractions and mixed numbers. 3 ACC assignments are due by Friday.
Grammar: Unit 4. We will be reviewing adjectives and comparing with adjectives.
Vocabulary: Unit 9
Science: We will be analyzing the chemical changes that involve making and breaking chemical bonds.
Social Studies: We will analyze the success of the Committees of Correspondence in fostering cooperation. We will have our next states test on Friday.
Thank you
Ms. Carney
