Noticias de la Semana
March 16 - 20
Academic Update
Literacy - Still truckin' along with our country brochures. I'm seeing some great ideas and creativity in their planning!
Intercambios - Students are starting with Sra. Trelles this today. This is their plant unit!
Spelling - Spanish words are consonant blends of cr and tr. Our English spelling words are focused on math concepts (vocabulary) that may be found on the MCA tests. We will be discussing/reviewing these words in school. I also encourage you to chat with your child at home about the "usage" of these words. Let me know if you would like any ideas/resources for practice!

Website for the Week!
**I'm not sure if I've sent this one before, but it's fabulous! The tagline on the website says: Making education fun and free. Free educational websites for the young and young at heart. It's crazy how many topics are available for exploration. Please take a few minutes to explore! I especially liked the history section. Other topics include: animals, biology, astronomy, chemistry, geography, math, geology and a few more!
Monday smile :-)
