Happy Holidays!

We have had another full week this week as we prepare for the Holiday Break!

We had a quick review/study of time and calendar in math this week and we will have a brief test tomorrow. After the break we will get into 2 digit x 2 digit multiplication! I will be sending home a multiplication game for extra facts practice over break!

In Writing Workshop we are drafted and have begun revising our Memoirs on the computers. Our fingers have been working swiftly and we have some great stories to share about things we have done that are generous or things that have made us a better person! We will be completing our Memoirs after break.

Our study in Reading Workshop with Questioning continued and we are now pretty good at finding answers to questions asked about a piece of text. Answer them in complete sentences seems to remain a struggle and we will work on that after break as well.

Floating and Sinking will begin on Wednesday 1/5 and will continue until Friday 1/14 in the afternoons. Thank you to parents who have volunteered to help us! It is fun, but a bit overwhelming at times.

I hope you have a safe and happy holiday break!!
