Thank you so much for returning the field trip form. Since we all turned them in by Tuesday, we earned our extra recess and received our extra DoJo points!  

This will be our last rotation of our Fairy Tale STEAM activities.  Our next activities will cover animals to go along with our language arts and science units! I will send an e-mail for supplies we will need.  We will still need toilet  paper rolls so send those in if you can!

Reading Workshop-This week we will begin our animal research project.  This goes  along with our Project Based Learning.  We will research the animal of our choice and become an "expert" on that animal.  At the end of our research, we will create a powerpoint, a google document, a newspaper, or a diorama of our animal in its habitat. We will work on our research and projects the next two weeks. 

Writing Workshop-    This week we will continue any poetry writing we have not completed and we will focus on taking notes for our research project. 

Science/ Social Studies-  We will begin our unit on animals.  We will look at reptiles and amphibians this week. 

Math-  This week we will begin our unit on multiplication.  We focus on the fact that multiplication is simply repeated addition.  For example, if we want to multiply 2 x 4 , we can think of 2+2+2+2.  

Important News:  Our field trip is April 27. I will send more details as the date gets closer.  We do not have school on Friday so enjoy your extra day with family. 

Class Brighteners-     Hana is our V.I.P!  I am super proud of Hana and how she always treats her classmates and friends respectfully!  Chloe is  our Star of the Week!  Way to go Chloe!
