Week of January 24

 This is going to look a lot like the blog from the week of January 17, with a few changes.

A few reminders:

• report cards went home Monday
• Young Writers contest entries may be turned in any time through Feb. 1
• coat drive through Jan. 26
• class Valentine party on Feb. 14, in the afternoon
• prizes still waiting for a few students to demonstrate shoe tying

Academics this week:

• practice all multiplication tables through 6
• introducing 7 x table this week
• practice US states in Midwest (and northeast, southeast)
• language quiz Tue. over identifying subjects and verbs, and distinguishing from past and present tense verbs
• science test Thursday (Study guide went home Monday.)
• spelling trial as usual, Thur. and final Friday, list 14.  No spelling homework on Tuesday IF the student wrote them when we had remote learning
• Bible memory quiz Friday:  John 15:12 "This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you."

Note: Students may take the reading, history, or science books home to study at any time, but they need to take good care of these books because we use them for several years.
