We are reading about the Transcontinental Railroad for the next three weeks in class. This week we are reading about the Chinese Railroad workers. We will be creating our own stories of working on the railroad for writing. We are looking at how sound energy travels in waves in Science. We are dividing with numbers that result in whole-number quotients and remainders. The students recognize the remainder as the amount remaining after finding a whole-number quotient, and they solve word problems that require interpretation of the whole-number quotient and remainder in math this week. We are finishing up the Module and testing next week.

Prefixes: intertwine, propel, superintendent, supervise, transmit, interval, proclaim, superficial, supersonic, transfer, transport, proceeding

March is reading month and the students have a choice of which reading log they would like to use to show they are reading 20 minutes nightly. The reading logs must be brought in each Monday.

All are wise tales that teach a lesson.
