March 15-19

We had a wonderful time on our fireldtrip to Mill City Museum.  We will take time on Monday to review the role the Mill played in the history of Minneapolis.   It has been a true blessing to pray with your children during this Lenten season.  Each day we have reflected on one station of the cross.  I asked them one day which station gave their heart the most sorrow to reflect on; their answers were so honest and purehearted.  It is no wonder Jesus hears the prayers of children! 

This week in Fifth Grade:

Religion-  As we conclude Chapter 17, we will discuss Jesus' human nature and divine nature.  In Chapter 18, we will learn how he was rejected by the proud of his day; Pharisees, Sadducces, Scribes, and Zealots.  We will reflect on how Jesus is rejected in our day.

Reading/Writing-  We will continue to read about our historical figures and make note cards.  100 Independent Reading minutes are due Friday.

Spelling- Unit 26 Spelling book pages are due Thursday.  The Unit 26 Spelling test is on Friday.

Math-  We will have a test over Unit 9 on Tuesday.

Science-  A study guide over The Water Cycle and Weather will come home on Tuesday evening.  The test will be on Thursday.

Enjoy your precious children during their Spring Break from March 20-28.
