March 5-9

"The stormy March has come at last, With winds and clouds and changing skies; I hear the rushing of the blast that through the snowy valley flies."

We had a fabulous start to our week. Students had a dress rehearsal with Mrs. Noseworthy to practice for their concert tonight. I am so excited to watch them perform and I look forward to seeing parents too! After their rehearsal, students participated in a fun Dr. Seuss activity. Students compared and contrasted the book Horton Hears a Who with the movie of the same title. They loved it. 

No spelling or math homework tonight due to the concert. However, students will have a spelling pretest tomorrow morning. Students will have four spelling assignments due by Wednesday, March 14th. Their test will be given that day.

We will continue with Unit 6 in math this week. Students will self assess automaticity with multiplication fact checks. They will also construct quadrilaterals and then measure and plot distances to the nearest half inch. Finally they will use multiplication/division diagrams to make sense of and solve number stories. Home Links will be given for homework on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings. 

Scholastic book orders are due on March 15th. Our classroom code is HB244. 

Have a lovely week! :)
