A look into learning this week:

Math: We are continuing to work with whole number dollar amounts and we will begin looking at cents as a decimal fraction of dollars.

Language Arts: We will be voting on a novel study for the Fantasy genre, a great genre to escape the dark days of winter. Students will be working on sentence writing; while most students can write a basic sentence, we are working toward writing more complex sentences to add variety to our writing. We continue to explore CAFE strategies during guided reading times and in our course work.

The students are looking forward to showing their families what they know this Thursday. If that is not possible, students are learning how to show their families through their digital portfolios on Freshgrade.

Yours,
Ms Powers and Ms Bridal
