Week of 3/9

*Odds and Ends: 

Thank you to the following families for bringing in snacks or drinks for PARCC testing: Edie, Yates, Salvino, Pangallo, and Gasman! If you still went to send in NUT free snacks or 100% juice boxes next week, the students would really appreciate it!

UPCOMING EVENTS: 

*Mon. 3/9: PARCC Testing: ELA I

* Wed. 3/11: PARCC Testing: ELA II

*Fri. 3/13: PARCC Testing: ELA III


A LOOK AT NEXT WEEK: 

*Reading: We will focus on reading paired text and comparing how different viewpoints and authors can write about the same topic. We will also finish up on ELA Unit 2 on culture.

*English: We will focus on autobiographies next week.

*Spelling: We will not have a list this week. We will work on analogies.

*Social Studies: We will begin our Chicago unit.

*Science: We will continue to work on ch. 14 as we work with color and sound.

*Math: We are working on fractions in ch. 9. The focus for our fast fact for this week is mixed multiplication facts. Students will work on passing 30 multiplication facts. Then we will begin division fast facts!

Have a great weekend...enjoy the sunshine and warmer weather! Don't forget to SPRING ahead and change your clocks!
