Sorry.
Here we go again! No sense covering the past, so lets look ahead. In the Fifth grade we are taking our Unit Assessment on The Reformation tomorrow. England and the Glorious Revolution is up next. A new queen, a new night, and a new government are unveiled for the whole world to see. Sherlock Holmes' mysteries will baffle the class for the next couple weeks. We will delve deeply into Sir Arthur Conan Doyle twisted web of hidden clues. English is progressing well with Mrs. Valenti-Turskey. Ms. McQuade has planted seeds of curiosity in the fifth grade as well. Also, remember to encourage your child to read twenty minutes a day! What ever book they want!
Lets turn the focus onto the sixth grade. We have just completed the Age of Enlightenment and are taking up arms with the French in the French Revolution! Viva Liberte! (I that how you spell it?)
As for the Seventh Grade, we are plodding through changes in the American psyche and trying to understand how we go from "Roaring" to starving then on to war. A lot can happen in thirty years.
That is all for now. Check in later for more information.
