**Please encourage your children to make sure they hand in assignments when they are due. If they are absent, please make sure that they look to see what they have missed! Science and Social Studies are rotating subjects and are not taught each week! When looking at Power School, please be aware that grades in Science and Social Studies take time to update. These classes are on a rotation and grades won't change until we visit that subject again! If you have any questions about this, please reach out!
This week we are going to be learning about weathering and erosion. We are going to be learning about how those forces change the surface of Earth. We are also going to be looking at how other things like weather events can change Earth's surface.
Students are going to continue to practice their states and capitals. The first quiz is going to be on Dec. 16th.
This Sunday marks the second Sunday of Advent. This week we are going to be discussing Chapter 6, but we may not get far. We have Mass this week, Confession, and our first meeting with Prayer Pals!
Homework: This is the projected homework for this week. It is possible that due to circumstances in class the homework may change. It is also possible that students will need to finish classwork that they did not complete during the class period to be turned in the next day. Please look at the student's planner as this will have the most recent and up to date homework. If nothing is written in the agenda, please look at the absent work file attached at the top of the page as the current information will be found there!

Social Studies: States and Capitals Quiz Dec 16
We have started to learn our states and capitals! Students have a large map in their binders that will be filled out throughout the year. We will focus on 7 new states and capitals each time. In the Social Studies Google Classroom there is a section titled States and Capitals that will have review games and materials that students can access any time to help them practice. Their login information is taped into their binders!
The quizzes will be broken into two parts.
On the first part:
Students will need to be able to match the states with the correct capitals
On the second part:
Students will need to identify the states on a blank map. They WILL NOT need to memorize how to spell them.
States and Capitals that we've learned so far!
