As you are already aware, I was out sick for a couple of days this week. Overall, the class did a great job of showing responsibility and effort to continue learning no matter what. Please be sure to read this whole post for important test dates and announcements!
Math- We are currently wrapping up our Fractions & Decimal unit. This week, compared decimals and used decimal grids to add decimals. Next week, Fractions and Decimals Post Test will be on Tuesday, April 4th-- keep studying!
Reading- We are currently in our Myths & Fables unit. This week, we learned about creation myths and cautionary myths. Ask your child about some of the examples of these kinds of myths.
Writing- We are currently in our Literary Essay unit. A literary essay is an essay about something that you have read. Students have already written their first essay and are working on their second. This week, students continued to revise their second literary essays!
