Your child brought home a note about study island today with the username and password attached.  Please put that information in a safe place.  Many parents have asked about skills to work on this summer.  The study island provides language arts and math skills that need to be reviewed over the summer to maintain skills for third grade.  Today I have an assignment for your child to complete three tests in language arts and three in math.  The site will be down the the 31st of May and June 1 only.  This summer I will open up all the language arts and math to be reviewed.    In addition to the mastery tests there are games and there are worksheets that can be printed also for extra practice.

We are studying mixtures in Science.  A mixture is made by two or more different things.  Each piece is the same as it was before it was mixed.  For example, strawberries and blueberries or cheerios and chex.  Please send in a mixture for snack on Thursday and/or Friday so that we can discuss  mixtures.  Thanks.
