ROBODOME!

Students will be receiving information shortly about our two day class trip to the ROBODOME! The dates are in late April. FUN!!!

STUDY THOSE TIMES TABLES!

Students who have not yet memorized their times tables are encouraged to KEEP PRACTICING AT HOME! Use Monty's Monster Math Link every night! Many students are having problems with long division because of those times tables.

STUDY!!!

We begin Friday Times Tables Tests again after Easter!!

POSTERS!

Monty is very excited about the Persuasive Writing posters that the class is creating. Their Persusive Writing is sounding incredible! Lots of great topics about Puppy Mills, Smoking, Animal Abuse, Photoshopped Models and Self-Esteem! Wow! Good job researching your projects class!!! Monty hopes to have volunteers to read their essays at a school assembly.
