Assignment Sheet

Week of June 1st

1. Welcome!
Assignment sheets are published each week on your website: mrdfourth90.com. You will find your spelling list there also, as well as a copy of the problem of the week.

2. Reading:
Each student is expected to do at least 15 minutes of reading a night. Students may choose to read from any book, including a book chosen for the monthly book report. Free choice this month. Due date is Monday June 1st. Books may be reported in any of the ten ways to do a book report.

3. Open Court:
Open Court is through for the year! We will be reading Great Books, with NO homework.

4. Spelling Story:
Spelling stories are really teaching vocabulary. They give children a chance to creatively use words they may not yet be familiar with. Each child should choose at least 12 words from the spelling list and create a story. Please be creative. Due each Friday. With a little more time, I expect to see some really great stories!

5. Math Homework: We will begin the next year's text book this week. Lessons 21-25. We will have a test on each Friday from now on. Tests are to be RETURNED MONDAYS with parent signatures.

6. Science Projects:
Science Projects (desk top sized) need to be completed for Open House, May 21st. Projects must deal with the theme of magnets, motors, or electricity. Many ideas are being discussed in class and children may use any of these, or their own ideas. Projects are to include fancy art display boards. Projects will be graded 50% on science demonstration and 50% on artwork. Be creative!
