Studying

I hope you were all studying this weekend for your science test. It will be on Wednesday.

Here are some of the ways to study that we spoke about in class:

1. Teach your family members about the things you have learned.

2. Have someone ask you questions about what you know.

3. Make yourself a test with questions that you think may be on the test. Answer them and see how you do.

4. Answer questions from the textbook

5. Go through your duotang and read everything that we have been learning.

6. Rewrite the notes that we have taken in class.

These are all great ways to remember and study the information for anything that you have been learning, whether it be: Science, Social Studies, Math, Language Arts, etc.

Hope this helps :)

Educational Websites

Lately at school, we have been trying out some interactive learning websites. If you want to try them out at home for fun you can simply type in the URL "www.delicious.com/msrobertson"

This will bring up all of the "tags" on the right hand side. Simply click on a study topic and try out the sites.

Learning can be fun!

Post a comment if you have any questions of how to access this. Thanks :)

READING CALENDAR

Please make sure that you are continuously adding to your reading calendar each time you read at home. The front calendar part is to record the minutes you read and then get a parent signature beside each minute entry. The backside is to record the book you have read when you FINISH reading it. Please record the name of the book, how many pages the book has, and the date you finished reading. You may also record if you read a magazine, newspaper, etc.

For the month of November, your reading calendar is pink. Please keep it in your planner pocket so you remember to use it each time you read.
