Metrocrest Food Drive
Our TCE student council is partnering with Metrocrest Services to provide food donations for local families and senior citizens. The food drive will run October 9th-19th, and student council will have boxes at the end of each downstairs hallways that learners can place their donations in. This will be our only food drive for this year!
Raz Kids
The district has now added RAZ KIDS accounts for all elementary students in the district. With this being said, it means the old accounts we had set up just for TCE will be expiring, and new usernames and passwords will be given to students.

New student usernames and passwords will be passed out next week.

What are we learning?
Math
In math, we will start our multiplication and division unit. We will start by taking our pretest and graphing our results. The first week will be spent diving into what multiplication is, what a multiplication chart looks like, and how to use it. We will also introduce our "fact fluency" timed practice that we will be doing each week. This will not be a grade of any sort, just a way to practice and reinforce memorizing multiplication facts.
Language Arts
In reading, we will finish our unit on figurative language. We will look in depth at onomatopoeia and hyperboles. Towards the end of the week we will begin our unit on Poetry.
In writing, we will continue to work on sentence formation and the conventions of writing.

Science
In science, we will finish our "energy experts" research. The learners will also be presenting this research to the class. We will spend the end of the week discussing light, thermal, mechanical, and sound energy in depth.
Social Studies
In social studies, learners will continue to look at historical documents, their purpose, and how they have shaped our nation. We will look at the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and The Declaration of Independence.
