I hope everyone has a relaxing and wonderful week off.

Book fair wish lists are coming home today. Please circle or highlight what you want your child to buy and send in in a ziplock bag or envelope labeled with name. We shop first thing tomorrow morning.
*We did not include trinkets or toys…. only books. You can send extra money if you want them to purchase those items too!
Math practice problems from last week are coming home today. I put on a post it note the strategy that I have seen your child be the most consistent with. We will do final problems on Thursday for final grade for report card. Practice each night until then! (It will include addition and subtraction problems).
All work has finally been graded and the rest comes home tonight!
These weeks are FLYING by! I can not believe we finish Marking Period 3 next Friday before Spring break.
We finished Benchmark Unit 7 today. Books will be coming home and the work from the last two weeks. We have really been stressing about thinking about answers and writing complete sentences. We will not start Unit 8 until after Spring break so you will have no spelling choice boards for next week! They can focus on reading.
Reminder- Clover writing should be turned in on Monday. (It was in the packet with reading logs from the beginning of the month.)
For math we will be finishing up Module 4 before break. I will be grading some addition and subtraction problems next Thursday and they can do whatever strategy they want. I will encourage them to do the one they know best. You can practice problems before them just so they are prepared. After spring break we will begin Module 5- money and measurement. We will continue practicing 2/3 digit addition and subtraction during the montessori work time so it is still fresh in our brains before the IReady in May. We usually do practice problems on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Science we will have to continue over break. We have one more section to do and they will be excited to make glue a final time. Once we finish then we will move on to our last unit for Amplify Science.
Next week is Book Fair! Please sign up if you are able to help… we have lots of open spots.
