April 15-19

Just a friendly reminder....
There will be a quiz on Wednesday on our Science vocabulary, students created cards to study over a week ago in class.  These will help them prepare for the vocabulary quiz.
**The Math test that was scheduled for this Thursday will be moved to Friday.  The topics on the test will be: partial quotient division, measuring angles and coordinate grids.**

Have a great week!

Welcome Back!

I hope everyone has been able to enjoy this beautiful weather this week!

In our Math class, we are learning to measure angles!  Currently, the students are measuring using a full-circle protractor and later this week, they will learn to measure with a half-circle protractor.

In Language Arts, the students are working with a reading partner instead of in a literature circle.  Currently, they are reading (and enjoying!) Dear Mr. Henshaw  by Beverly Cleary.
To read more about our author, learn more about Leigh and other characters that Ms. Cleary has written, take a look at her website: Beverly Cleary Website

Enjoy the rest of the week and read this coming Friday's weekly update for more happenings in our class!
