Welcome to a new week of school.

Please review concepts at home with your child to help him/her be prepared.

In spelling, we are on lesson 9.


In ELA, are discussing types of figurative language. We will look for 
examples in writing and will create our own examples.  We will also be 
studying uses of the comma.  We will begin to read the novel Tuck Everlasting.

In math, we are discovering prime and composite numbers.

  
In social studies, we are continuing to study South America.

In science, we are working on endangered animal research.

Please check both the website and agenda books for important homework 
assignments and due dates.  

Students should have a book in school at all times for independent reading.  
Both Ms. Andersen and Mrs. Walker have classroom libraries from which 
students may choose books.
