An entertaining app to practice and apply addition and subtraction strategies. Reviewing these foundational skills is always important!

Reading classes will be spending the next few weeks finishing up with informational texts. We are still working on comparing and contrasting these non fiction texts. We are learning to look critically at the main ideas and determine how they are similar and how they are different. Students are always encouraged to go back to the text to find proof for their responses.

Just a reminder that as the weather gets colder, students will need to have a jacket to participate in recess. If they do not have a coat, they will not be able to go outside on cold days. We want to keep everyone healthy! If students are missing jackets, they are encouraged to check the lost and found!
