Writing
Memoirs: Writers write interesting leads and strong
conclusions. Writers vary their sentences by writing
statements, questions, and exclamations. Writers use
verbs to show action.

Math
Next week we will finish up Module 2 on measurement and
(hopefully) assess on Thursday. We will see how the kids are
doing and adjust the assessment date as needed.

Tablets are here!

Im sure youve heard we had 12
tablets donated to our classroom. I am still working on getting them set-up for student use.
Wednesday the students opened
their surprises. Thank you for
helping us make this dream a reality!
