Happy Thursday!

I wanted to get a head start on next week since we'll be starting it off with a PARTY! Thanks to my room parents for organizing everything! AND, thanks to all of you parents for getting your donations in promptly!

Here's what we'll be doing next week:

Language Arts: We'll be finishing our organizers for our PowerPoint presentations. We'll also be reviewing HOW to take different types of tests. They have had a lot of practice with different types, but we want to really review before MSA's. Some of the practicing we'll be doing is with released tasks from the state.

Math: My math class will also be practicing with MSA type questions. We're also starting multiplication next week! I'm sure they'll be super excited!!

Writing: Next week will begin our focus on the "Voice" writing trait. That's where they put their own "attitude" in their writing.

Science: We're finished working with our red worms. They are, however, still in the classroom making wonderful compost... We've begun talking about rocks and minerals now.

Please remember about our Valentine's Party on Monday at 2:30!

Have a wonderful weekend!
