In math, we will start some supplemental lessons in Bridges. When we get back, we will learn how to multiple fractions. Some of these lessons will include us watching Khan Academy videos.

For reading, we will start Unit 8 in Benchmark Reading. The skill for this week in the unit is Author's Purpose.
In Language, we will start Unit 3 Verbs.
We will take a break in Social Studies next week. We will be taking our STAR reading, math, and Acuity tests during this time.
We will be going to the high school on Thursday to see the band perform.
