Math: We are finishing our unit on time and the test will be on May 8. Our next chapter will be on 3-digit addition & subtraction.

English: We will be using multisensory grammar to help us understand nouns, verbs, and adjectives. This technique involves using colors to underline these parts of speech.

ZOO TRIP
We had an awesome trip to the zoo on Thursday! Your children were very well behaved. I would like to thank Mrs. Cahn, Mr. Eastman, Mrs. Espinosa, Mrs. Hayes, Mrs. Kleespie, Mrs. Rose, Mrs. Shelton, and Mrs. Suchan who helped me supervise the trip. They did a fantastic job!!

ANIMAL REPORTS
Most students are needing more time to finish their reports so so I have  extended the time. We will begin on Friday with those who are ready and finish on Monday.
