English this week.

Bible (Miss Reech)
MV: Matthew 3:16-17”As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. 
At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a
dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love;
with him I am well pleased.”  We are concluding our unit on the Trinity and how God
can be 3 persons but still one God. Our Bible test will be Tuesday, October 22. 


Spelling (Miss Reech)
Ten words will be given Monday and Tuesday. Students received instructions on how to
complete homework for Monday and Tuesday located in their Reech folder. Seven
words will be used each night. On Wednesday we will take a practice test. If
students make a 100 A+, they do not have to take the test on Friday. Our test on
all 21 words will be on Friday.

Social Studies (Miss Reech)
We are completing our unit on Canada, our neighbors to the North. We have learned
about the geography and the history of the country. Students corrected their study
guide on Thursday. The test will be Wednesday, October 23. We will have a mystery
Skype this week, and students are putting the final touches on their Canada green
screen projects. 


Science (Mrs. Jaques)
Next week, we will begin a unit on Chemistry.  The students will learn about the
properties of mixtures and solutions. 


Math (Mrs. Jaques)
We will continue Chapter 9 on using multiplication and division to write and evaluate
expressions and equations with variables. The students will also figure out the
pattern of input/output tables and express the rule using equations with variables.
