- We will take next week off from reading minutes, math homework and word work.
- All Star Reading: Your child brought home a letter explaining all star reading this week. The kids are really excited about this and everyone is working to complete at least 5 innings to attend a baseball game with the Varsity Baseball team.
- March 26 and 28: Conferences from 4-8 p.m. Time slots are 15 minutes and I will do my best to stay on time.
- March 30-April 6: Spring Break
- April 11 (Wednesday): Outdoor Discovery Center. We will be learning about Native American Lifeways and Voyageurs. We will be leaving school around 8:30 in the morning and returning around 2:30. Students will be spending most of the day outdoors and will need to be dressed appropriately. They will also need a sack lunch and drink. I am still able to take one more parent volunteer along. Let me know if you are interested in joining us.
Devotions: Aaron, Alyssa, Leila, Gavin, and Gabe led us this week in our morning devotions. We have enjoyed a lot of creative ways to spend time with God.
Bible: We have been looking at the story of Easter and taking a couple of weeks to review the stories that led Jesus to the cross. Each day we do a small craft on an Easter poster, talk about the story, and sing praises as we work.
Literacy: We are almost done with our nonfiction animal books. This week we wrote a chapter on how we see God in our animal. We also wrote our conclusions, a chapter about the author, and worked on the glossary. I look forward to sharing these books with you at conferences.
Math: We have begun a new unit on fractions. This week we began talking about how a fraction is part of a whole, looking at fractions that are larger than one, and identifying fractions on number lines.
Social Studies: We continue to study the economy of Michigan. This week we talked about specialization of items Michigan makes as well as interdependence on other states/countries to get goods we need.
MUSIC NOTE FROM MRS. BOER - This is what we have learned this quarter....
*Three Songs of the Month - Come Now, O Prince of Peace; O Day of Peace, and
*We began playing recorders (notes A, B, G) and learned how to take care of them.
Have a great weekend!
