Moving in Math and Science
Students are well on their way measuring perimeter and area during math!! In science, we ended our week with a Bill Nye the Science Guy video on balanced/unbalanced forces!!
Reading for the Stars
We finished up our fairy tale study this week with an assessment comparing the original Cinderella to The Egyptian Cinderella. Next week the students will be working in teams to put on two Fairy Tale plays!!
Writing as Experts
Students continue to draft their adapted fairy tales! We have had a great time acting out our ideas in order to prove we are writers who can SHOW and not just TELL our stories!!
Looking Ahead...
Final Thoughts
Next week we will have our second round of PARCC testing. Students will test Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday morning. Please make sure your child is getting to bed early, eating a nutritious breakfast, and bringing a healthy snack each of those days. We appreciate your support and efforts in having your child ready and rested!
