Lion's Club

Each year the Lions Club of Coppell provides holiday baskets and toys for families in the Coppell ISD attendance area. Last year Lion's Club provided a special Christmas for over 127 families and hundreds of children who might otherwise have gone without. The food baskets and toys are delivered by members of the Lions Club of Coppell, and the identity of the recipients is kept confidential. All Lion's Club needs need to know is the address and the family demographics, sizes, and any special needs the family may have. If your family would like to apply for a holiday basket and toys, please email Town Center's counselor, Kelly Matlock, at kmatlock@coppellisd.com.

Math

Okay guys, that’s a wrap on multiplication and division, and we are ready to rock and roll on that post test this week! ROCK AND ROLL!! We will be reviewing all week and shining up our knowledge about all things multiplication: 2 by 1 digit multiplication, representing multiplication and division, knowing if a number is even or odd, understanding that multiplication and division are related, and solving multiplication and division word problems. Fact fluency (knowing your multiplication and division facts 1-10 quickly and easily) will not be assessed here. We will continue to have the kiddos practice and learn on Reflex; fact fluency will be reported on our next report card, which goes home the first week in January.

Science 

Raise your hand if you are ready to “dig in” to a new unit?  I think I just saw all of your hands go up!  And they stay there and they stay there!  Next week we will begin our unit on Earth’s Surface.  We will kick it off by taking a closer look at soil; the layers, how it is formed and the importance of it.  2 new vocabulary words that will be introduced are weathering (the breaking down of rock), erosion (the movement of broken down rock and soil, and disposition (where the eroded pieces/soil end up). 

Reading/Writing 

We have been researching using multiple sources for our expository subtopics the last few weeks. We have been working hard to get our information organized into first drafts, using all of the grammar skills we have been working on - complete sentences, subject/verb agreement, correct punctuation. Next week, we will continue to edit and revise our drafts and complete our expository pieces! In reading, we are continuing to explore nonfiction text features!

Social Studies 

We will be wrapping up our study of US Government and Citizenship by continuing to add to our knowledge of historical documents.
