The week...

Hello Friends, and thank you for checking in.  I hope that the weekly homework lists are allowing students to manage their time more effectively.  Leading up to the winter break, this week and next, we will be dedicating a great deal of our time to finishing up our mission reports.  The kids have been troopers as we research and write about our findings.  We have a very cool art project to accompany the  report as well!
Please keep those donations of food for Grind Out Hunger and supplies for the troops coming in.  It's great that we can support these worthwhile groups, especially during the holidays.
There will be a math quiz on Wednesday and a spelling quiz on Friday.  There will be a short quiz on the missions next week, as well as a quiz on the water biomes we have been studying.

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

The week...

Howdy families, and thanks for checking in.  The kids are definitely in vacation mode!  We had a rough day, but still managed to accomplish what we set out to do.  The kids have minimal homework this evening.  Each student is responsible for math lesson 12.2, problems 1-30.  I would remind folks that the November book reports are due a week from Friday, the 30th.  Hopefully folks take advantage of some of their free time this week to get going with their efforts.

Report cards go home tomorrow afternoon.  Each student will be sent with a manila folder that contains their work and their first trimester grades.

Have a wonderful holiday,
Mr. Bryant

As a friendly reminder, we have  spelling and math quizzes on Friday.

Hello all, and thank you for checking in.  Just a quick note for you today, as we ran out of time and did not get to our planners.

Our short week...

Hello all, and thank you for checking in.  Today marks our foray into the second trimester.  It is hard to believe that 12 weeks have already passed!

I will be writing report cards during the week, and they will be sent home with the kids next week in their Red Folders.

We are taking a break from the math text this week and will be working with multiplication content from supplemental resources.  The kids have been given a stapled set of worksheets to complete at home this week.  The worksheets are due on Friday.

Tonight, the kids should also begin their efforts with spelling for the week.  They are also responsible for RPB page 182.

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
