Livingston Christian Schools 5th Grade April 12-16
Bible: After King David, Bible history focuses on the reign of his son, King Solomon. In these lessons, we learn that if our inner character is right, we will also have a good reputation before others. What do you expect Solomon's inner character to be? Is it focused on pleasing God or himself? We'll investigate this week!! Bible memory work comes from Proverbs 3:1-10 and will be administered on Friday, April 16.
Spelling: List 27 words are professional terms. Spelling sentences are due Thursday, April 15. The pre-test and final test are set for Wednesday and Friday, respectively.
lawyer, electrician, assistant, mechanic, scientist, salesperson, secretary, carpenter, author, minister, missionary, gardener, cashier, educator, plumber, inventor, manager, chef, technician, editor, consultant, photographer, theologian, Acts, Romans, accountant, engineering, meteorologist, paralegal, journalist, architect, merchant, apprentice, entrepreneur, proprietor
Language Arts: The reading selection this week in entitled Old Yeller and the Bear, pgs. 158-167. In this story, the author uses the technique of suspense to keep the reader interested. Set in the late 1860's, we see how life might have been in Texas at the time. The comprehension quiz is due Thursday, April 15.
Grammar lessons will focus on review of pronouns.
Writing workshop time will encourage students to write stories from their imagination using a series of three pictures. Have fun!!
Math: Lessons this week will focus on the concept of the area of a parallelogram and a triangle.
History: At the close of the French and Indian War, it seemed all should be settled, but many began opposing Great Britain with much vigor. This led to the Revolutionary War. This week we will compare the Continental and British armies. We will recall Washington's bravery in the challenging days during the winter at Valley Forge. Some wondered if the colonists would ever claim victory. Surprisingly, there was a turning point. We'll find out what happened.
Science: Perform experiments at home this week. Make sure you design a fair test (a fair race), keep a log of everything you do, and create a data table for all your findings. Your experimental portion should be completed by the end of this week.
Other:
*Book report of your choice due Friday, April 30
*I am serving on an ACSI Accredidation Team from Wednesday through Friday this week in Grand Rapids. In two years LCS will recertify our program and therefore it is expected that all ACSI schools assist each other in this important process. I am disappointed I will not get to "hang out" with my kids for a good portion of the week, but this experience in invaluable to me (and LCS) professionally. Thank you for understanding in this matter.
*LCS AUCTION - Don't miss out on the fun this Saturday even if you are unable to bid on any items. It's entertaining just watching others! I hope to see you there. Remember, I'm looking for a "carpenter for the day" to spend a day with me in my dad's woodworking shop. You can bring a friend with you too!
