Ms. Reid's information for November 2-6
The students have spent the past two weeks studying and learning about different types of sentences and how to use them to vary their writing. On Tuesday, November 10, they will take their second grammar test. It will cover the types of sentences. Students can begin to study their notes from pages 6-7 in their Interactive Notebook.
We finish reading The Rumpelstiltskin Problem this week. The students will be working on their evaluation for this unit this week. They will show their understanding of summarizing, characterization, and comparing and contrasting as they work on their Fairy Tale booklet. This will mostly be completed at school, but you may check their progress at home any time.
Homework
Monday
Type your Fairy Tale Parody.
Tuesday
Complete Sentence Activity 4
Wednesday
Complete one activity for your Fairy Tale Booklet.
Thursday
Complete Sentence Activity 5.
Friday
Have a marvelous evening!
Stuff Folder: The students should keep their Fairy Tale Booklet materials in their stuff folder at all times! They will regularly need it in class.

In addition to a chapter review, your student should be bringing home his/her chapter 5 math test in the stuff folder. I made a mistake in the last newsletter regarding the date for returning the test.

Please sign and return your child’s test by November 3 even if he/she is not making corrections.

Matthew 5:10-16 (November 2-6)
Matthew 5:10-16 (New International Version)
10Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Salt and Light
13"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
