Greetings Parents, 

We've  just had another FANTASTIC week!     

A few highlights include creating 2 and 3 dimensional shapes in math, publishing an informational book, and learning about air and weather in science. I have posted pictures on Twitter and Class-tag for you to view.

Report cards were sent home on Thursday, January 19th in your child's communication folder.   Congratulations to those students’ who made the honor roll.  

Students will take their  Spring MAP test in March.  In an effort to help students build their reading comprehension  and vocabulary skills, I am asking for your support.  Each week, I ask that you work on at  least 2 Reading Works passages with your child.  You may access  these passages  by logging into the website below.    Please let me know if you have any questions.  

Here's what's happening in our class for the week of January 29th. 

Our story for the week will be  A Trip to the Emergency Room.  We will focus on the skill of sequencing events and  multi-meaning words.     Students will take their assessments on Thursday.   Homework assignments will be given each night.
