In the Classroom
In math, we are wrapping up our measurement units. Students have learned to convert both customary and metric units, solve problems involving area and perimeter, count change, and add subtract units of time. During Open House preparations, students got a taste of some of our upcoming geometry skills that we will dive into after Spring Break!
In Language Arts, we recently took the practice Writing STAAR. Your child's LA teacher will be sending you more information about the results of this test. The students worked very diligently and wrote some wonderful essays. We will use the results to guide our review and small group instruction in the weeks leading up the the Writing STAAR. Make sure you have April 10 marked on your calendar for the real test. Please avoid scheduling any appointments or trips on those dates!
