Testing this week and next

There is no school on Friday, May 5th.  I will be gone on May 4th and May 8th.  Mr. Woods will be our guest teacher.

The last book order is due on May 11th.

I will be sending the permission slip and sack lunch slip home for our upcoming field trip to Riverfront Park on May 26th.  Your child will also need to bring $2.00 to purchase a Snowie shaved ice.  If you are unable to send $2.00 please let me know and we can work something out.  Also, please let me know if you would like to volunteer to help out with the field trip.

It's assessment time again.  Please make sure your kids get some good sleep.  Testing is exhausting! This week we will be completing the FASTBridge assessments for math and reading.

We will still be doing whole group reading, but will not be having reading groups due to testing.  Our essential question this week is, "Who helps you?"

We are knee deep in animal research and will begin writing.

In math, we are moving on to geometry.  We will start with 2-D shapes and move on to 3-D shapes. We will be learning about the defining attributes of the shapes (sides, vertices, open, closed).  We will also squeeze in a few fraction lessons while learning about shapes.
