Literacy
Math
This week in Math we had so much fun learning about shapes. We started our week learning the differences between 2D and 3D shapes. We tried to find all the different ways we could make pictures using shapes and also had fun creating our own shapes with play dough. We learned we can use terms like sides and vertices to describe and distinguish different shapes. On Wednesday we went on a shape hunt throughout the school and found many different shapes. It really made us realize that shapes are all around us every day! We also enjoyed making Shape Pizzas and on Friday we went outside with sidewalk chalk and practiced making our shapes. We each got to draw many different shapes and learn about sides and vertices.

Camp Jenny Backpack Drive - 5th Grade
Camp Jenny, located at Camp Coleman, provides a summer camp experience for children who are less-fortunate and unable to afford camp. This unique experience takes place during Memorial Day weekend. Camp Jenny relies on fundraising efforts and donations to make this mitzvah possible. As part of their Tzedakah project, the 5th grade will be collecting new or gently used backpacks to donate to the campers of Camp Jenny.
Collection cans will be located in the lower school carpool, gym, and front lobby from Monday, April 4th until Friday, April 15th.
