Have a wonderful Spring Break!  School will resume on Monday, April 4th

Please remind your child to charge their Chromebook each night! Thank you!


Classroom Library Volunteer: Are there parents who would be interested in helping me out by classifying my library? This will help students find good fit books based on their letter for Fountas and Pinnell. I'd like a parent to find the "F & P" level for each book and mark them accordingly. If you could give up a little of your time, maybe one morning or afternoon a week, I would greatly appreciate it! Email me if you are interested. You would be trained. :) Thank you to Mrs. Harvat for already leveling some of the books in our classroom library!

The Thirty-first Week at School:

Science: At the end of the week students will begin learning about space. 

Social Studies: This week students will learn about the Chicago Fire. They will make a Chicago flip book which will put the Chicago fire events in order. They will also write a story about the Chicago Fire from Cow O'Leary's point of view!

Math:  We will begin unit 6 on Multiplication & Division, Data, & Fractions.  Unit 6, module 1 focuses on multiplication and division strategies.  On Tuesday, April 12th students will take a mixed division test and will receive 3 minutes to complete 50 problems. I will pass out practice tests throughout the week we return from break.


Spelling: Students will receive a new spelling list. The 6 activities will be due on Friday, April 15th. They will also have their spelling test on Friday, April 15th.

ELA: 
We will continue our third and final unit titled, Stand Up for What You Believe In! The students are really enjoying The One and Only Ivan! We will continue our Daily 5 program. The March reading log will be due on Monday, April 4th.

Things to Remember: 
Monday 4/4: The March reading log is due.
