Busy Week!!

Hi Everyone!

What a wonderful and busy week!!  Our field trip was wonderful!  Thank you to all of the chaperones who came with us to the aquarium and Rainforest Cafe:-) Check out the Detroit News online and the paper-our Noah is a celebrity and was featured in a photo.   It was a fun and educational trip!!  Today we worked on writing informational reports about sea life and so we did not meet for strategy groups today!  The class really enjoyed working on finding their sea life facts:-)  Our Unit 2 math test is tomorrow-I went over the study guide again today with everyone!  This is their only homework for tonight.  Have a great night and Happy Wednesday!
