Next Week:

Literature/ Science

We are integrating our science into our literature time, next week will be all about the rainforest. This has always been one of my most favorite habitats to read and learn about. Next week we will be making a foldable as we learn about the plants, animals, and adaptations found in each layer.   

Social Studies

We would love to celebrate George Washington’s birthday on Tuesday, Feb. 22^nd.  Any family that would like to provide patriotic cupcakes, we will gladly sing and celebrate.  We will also be reading a George Washington poem and making a President portrait. Next week we will be giving a pre-test for the economics unit that is just around the corner.   

Math

We dabbled a bit into graphing and data analysis, and measurement using inches. The students will be using personal rulers as we perfect our measuring skills.  

Parent Teacher conference information will be posted soon!
