Thank you to everyone that volunteered to chaperone our upcoming field trips! I will be in touch as soon as I have more information.
Over the break, I have encouraged the students to use their time to get caught up on any missing working or needed corrections. They should also continue to read, read, read! They could also get started on the take-home project of making a "litter bug" from recycled materials and writing about their buggy friend. These projects are due on April 20th.
I hope everyone enjoys the break! Here's a look at what the students worked on during our short week.

- We read and viewed more tall tales. The students did a great job comparing and contrasting the different features they noticed.
- 3rd and 4th graders turned in final drafts of their realistic fiction stories and literary essays. I look forward to reading them!
- Students have been turning in corrections to their geometry assessments. I expect to see more after the break.
- They took a pretest for our fraction unit, and we definitely have a lot of work to do! :)
- We have already begun by creating our own fraction kits to help us compare fractions and find equivalent fractions.
- We completed some more experiments and demonstrations to show that gases take up space.
- 4th graders should be working on corrections from their last chapter assessment. They have also been reading about the beginning of the Civil War.
- In the meantime, 3rd graders are continuing to read about Michigan history as more of the US gets settled.
