Fine Arts and French Night (A Note from Ms. Arce-Lindsay): Hello Archway Arete Family! Fine Arts and French Night is Wednesday, April 10th from 5:30 to 7:30. Please bring your friends and family for a night of celebrating our student’s achievements in Art and French! Art will be displayed on the walls by classrooms, French videos and performances will take place in the MPR, and there will be mini art lessons in the art room. Light refreshments will be served on the playground courtyard by our lovely PSO. Excited to see you there!
Thanks everyone! Let me know if you have any questions!
Next Week in 2B...
Literature: Please send in a copy of our newest novel: Little House in the Big Woods. We will discuss the setting and how it relates to us in Arizona. We will outline the 5 main characters in the story. After reading we will discuss how Laura’s house and our homes differ. We will learn the steps of food preservation. Ask your literature master what the vocabulary word ‘headcheese’ means!
Spalding Words Next Week:
Monday: support, does, goes, Tuesday, regard, escape, since, which, witch
Tuesday: length, long, strength, strong, destroy, newspaper, daughter, naughty, caught, taught, answer
Wednesday: reply, sail, sale, cities, city, known, know, several, desire, nearly
Writing and Grammar: We will start a new unit on dictionary skills. We will be Dictionary Daredevils! We will become alphabetical order experts, and learn to use guide words. We will also read a few tall tales.
Math: It's about that time....to start our Time Unit! If you have watches or analog clocks at home, encourage your child to practice identifying the long hand vs. the short hand this week.
Quizzes: Tuesday, Wednesday
History: The test over Westward Expansion in on Monday! Please help your child study over the weekend. Remind them that they should use complete sentences when answering questions (capital letter, period, restate the question). We will begin the Civil War unit on Wednesday. We do begin with a discussion on slavery, so it would be helpful to have a discussion at home with your child about the sensitivity of the subject. We will discuss at school as well.
Science: We will continue the unit on magnets and magnetism. Ask your child about which part of the magnet is the strongest and why two ends might repel each other.
Love,
Mrs. Dombrowski
