The leaves hop, scraping on the ground.
It is deep January. The sky is hard.
The stalks are firmly rooted in ice.
It is in this solitude, a syllable,
Out of these gawky flitterings,
Intones its single emptiness,
The savagest hollow of winter-sound.
~Wallace Stevens
We had a great start to our four day school week. Students reviewed for the Unit 4 math test this morning. The test will be given on Thursday. They will have a review packet to do for homework tonight. We will go over it tomorrow and then they will study for their test using both Reviews on Wednesday night. Thursday's night homework will be a one sided assignment.
Our Spelling Rule this week involves the double vowel syllable groups -eu, -ew and -ui. Students will have a Spelling Cafe choice each night for homework. Please remind students to study extra hard this week since we have one less day of homework to practice our words.
Scholastic book orders will go home this week. They'll be due back by February 11th. Please remember you can order books online using our classroom code as well. HB244
Have a wonderful week! :)
