Valentines Party–Friday 3:00 p.m.     Please send in $2 to help with the cost of treats for the party. Students may bring valentines to exchange.  We will have bags to hold valentines and take them home.

MATH

We are beginning our unit on Hands On Algebra. Students will be using manipulatives all week to practice solving algebraic equations. There should not be homework–We will work together in class.

Word Study

We are working on a list of words to participate in a local spelling bee. On Friday, we will hold a homeroom spelling bee.

i-TIME

We have used a strategy called “Anticipation” guides to help students focus on comprehension as they read. They must decide their opinion about several topics prior to reading, then read to confirm or disprove a statement they have read.  Below are partners reading from Scholastic News to see how accurate they were in their predictions.
