Week 18 

“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” – Anne Frank

It’s cold outside, and cold in the classroom. Please make sure that your child comes to school with a sweater, especially because the windows are open in our classroom.

Math

We are continuing our work on Division.  This week we are having a quiz on Thursday, and then we will finish the chapter next week.  We are also still focused on Multiplication facts. There are still a few students that do not have them memorized yet.  Please remember children can practice XtraMath at home, and I encourage your child to do so.

ELA

We are having spelling, comprehension, vocabulary and grammar ELA  tests on Friday.
