HI!

What a great week of learning we have had!  We have started our animal research and are working on our projects.  If you have any shoe boxes, we need at least 7 of them!  Please send them in with your child!   Some of our friends are creating a diorama and will need a shoe box. Ask your child which project they are creating for their animal research. 

Thanks to Ms. Withers for taking on the challenge of our class carnival basket If you sign up on Sign Up Genius, please  put your family name, item donating, and value in the comments so everyone can see what others are donating so there isn't duplication.  IE: Withers, Gap gift card, $20 

Reading Workshop-  We will continue our animal research.  Many students are beginning their project this week.  Ask your child if they are creating a newspaper, slide show, diorama, or a poster.   We will share our projects with our families so be on the lookout for an e-mail!  

Writing Workshop-  Next week we will use our writing to help us with our animal research. We will learn how to "take notes" and write facts using our own words. We will also use the laptops to help us type our information.   

Math-   We will continue to work on three digit addition with regrouping!  We will take our assessment next week and then we will begin our unit on fractions. 

Science- We will continue our unit on animals! We will focus on birds, insects, and then we will focus on how animals camouflage. 

Class Brighteners-  We earned 10 compliments and celebrated with Show and Tell!  

Have a great weekend!

Mrs. King
