Next Week:

Language Arts

I am looking forward to our next creative writing unit, poetry. The students will be introduced to poetry elements and have a chance to write their own acrostic and cinquain. I cannot wait to see their creative writing pieces. 

Math

Our place value and computation unit continues as we become more efficient and fluent with addition and subtraction.   

Social Studies

Our goods and services unit was a great introduction to economics.  We will start an exciting research project on our very own Grand Canyon state. As a class we will read a fictional story and find important information to refer back to when we start our reports.   

Science

The students will continue with the studies of air and its forces.
