Happy Thursday! I hope this beautiful weather holds out for our 50th Anniversary Celebration and the Strawberry Festival!

Here's what we're doing and what we will be doing:

Language Arts: We're continuing with our Plays unit and our Novels unit. By the end of next week your child will have a part in a play that we will perform. This will most likely take place around the beginning of June.

Math: We've been cutting out fractions and adding them. Next week we'll be doing the same with sets of objects.

Writing: I had so much fun making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with some of the students' directions. We'll be working on giving directions and will then turn that into a "How To" essay.

Word Study: Next week's list will be homophones - words that sound the same but are spelled differently. The test for these words will be sentences using the word properly.

Science: We're still working on our Populations Unit - we'll be discussing ecosystems next week.

Have a wonderful weekend.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!
