I hope everyone had a nice week. The weather was absolutely beautiful!
A few reminders about this week:
*Wednesday 4/26: Book orders are due! The best way to order is online using our code GZV3K
*Thursday 4/27: Career Day Spirit Day & Library
*Friday 4/28: Half day!
For the next two weeks we will be focusing on Folktales, specifically "The Fox's Foray." Students will compare and contrast different versions of this folktale and others. Today we played the game "Telephone" to show how even simple phrases can change when passed on from person to person, so complete stories may have changed as well!
Even though we will not read a story in our Reading Street anthology this week and next week, we will still have spelling words and a spelling test. Students will have a homework packet this week, but will not have a homework packet next week as May 1-5 is the PTO Screen Free fundraiser! (Information went home before vacation).
We will be starting Unit 8 in Math this week! There are only a few units left... we certainly are coming to the end of the year!
In Science, we will begin planting in our classroom. These plants will then be put into our garden once they are ready.
Please be sure to send your student in with a snack and water bottle every day.
This is just a reminder that we have Gym on Thursdays and Fridays. Please be sure students are wearing sneakers. If your student still struggles with tying his/her own shoe, please please please practice at home. Students should be tying their own shoes at this point in the year.
Have a great week,
Mrs. Bower
