Happy New Year!
A Note From Miss Gradone
- Thank you so much for the very generous class gift I received for the holidays. I truly appreciate your kindness.
- Book orders are due January 15, 2016.
- The character trait of the month is acceptance. Talk with your children about what it means to truly accept others.
- Miss Gradone's students are becoming meteorologists! Everyday one students from our class will be responsible for preparing the weather report for the day. They will come in with the report prepared and will present it during the morning announcements over the loud speaker. Looking forward to hearing all of their wonderful speaking voices!
- Calling All Parents! There are many openings to come in to be a mystery reader. Please email me if you are interested in finding a day to come in. Readers typically come in at 2:00 on Fridays but can be flexible if need be.

This week we began Unit 4. The new unit will consist of a lot of multiplication practice. We reviewed expanded multiplication and multipilcative word problems & estimation.
Reading & Writing
Do you know about YouTube? What is your opinion about it? This week your we read an article debate called "Should Kendra become a YouTube Star?" We read two persuasive letters from opposite points of view and began to form our own opinions. What do you think?
Science & SS
The Water Filter Project was a great success! This week each group presented their final project to the class. We learned about their predictions, findings and reflections for next time. We are now beginning to transition back into Social Studies.
