Livingston Christian Schools 5th Grade October 19-23
Bible: This week's life principle is that God works all things together for our good, but He doesn't promise things will always be easy or comfortable. This is certainly revealed in the life of Joseph as he faced many trials in Eygpt where he was sold to be a slave. In the end, however, God used his influence to provide for his family many years later. The Bible memory test is Psalm 19:1-12 to be given on Friday, Oct. 23. The Bible 5 quiz will be set for Thursday, Oct. 22.
Spelling: List 6 words are food terms. Spelling sentences are due Thursday, Oct. 22. Students have been directed to write sentences that reveal they understand the meaning of the word. For example, "What is a carbohydrate?" would not be acceptable because I am unable to understand if they really know the word's definition. The pre-test and final test are set for Wednesday and Friday, respectivley.
Language Arts: The reading selection this week is entitled The Heavenly Zoo, pgs. 228-245. The legends in this reading showcase the author's talent for writing descriptive paragraphs. A comprehension quiz is set for Wednesday, Oct. 21.
Grammar lessons highlight prepositions and prepositional phrases. Students will have a quiz over prepositions 1-10 on Tuesday, Oct. 20. They have already received a list of common prepositions. Knowing these words will help students distinguish between verbs and prepositions.
Writing Workshop time will be devoted to revising the Explorer's Journal. The typed, rough draft is due Monday, Oct. 19. The final revisions are due Thursday, Oct. 22. The final copy must be typed, double spaced, and in font 12.
