Tuesday

Howdy all. What a day! We started a new story in our reading anthology entitled "Tonya's Reunion", and discussed new vocabulary that appeared in the short story. We also worked with early explorers to California, and the kids created short biographies based on computer research that was conducted in class. They are also working on illustrations to accompany their research. Math is getting harder, as we're now tackling fractions and mixed numbers. It's all very spooky.

The kids are responsible for the following tonight:

-Reading Log
-Cursive packet, letter 'G'
-math lesson 37 (all)
-reading practice book page 99 (vocabulary we covered today)
-explorer research and illustration (if not finished in class)

I am also sending home Picture Day retake information. Be on the lookout for it.

Respectfully, Mr. B
