Tuesday March 31

What a fun day in Science! We finished our Owl Pellet lab and discovered that owls probably eat their prey alive and do not chew it up. We found many different bones in our pellets. We are continuing to read Hatchet and working on our vocabulary. In math we worked with fractions and decimals on a number line. It was a fun and busy day. Homework tonight is Spelling wkst 194 and to finish their math assignment. Don't forget to hand in March Reading Calendars. Have a good night.

Monday, March 30

Happy Monday to you! We cleaned out all of our 3rd quarter work from our binders. We are now ready to start fresh for the 4th quarter. Missing work has become a problem, so we are going to start having some drawings for students who have no missing work. We hope everyone gets their name in this weekly drawing and we want to reward their great efforts. Mark your calendars, Poetry Cafe will be on April 30th from 1:45 - 3:00 p.m. We hope to see lots of parents there.

Mystery Question: What is your favorite poem that you have written this year? Write its title on the sticky note that will be on your desk in the morning.
