Happy Birthday CT! Hope you celebrated in Vietnam with something special! Your name was on our birthday announcements!
In math: We are finished with multiplication and as the class understood all aspects well and faster than expected, we have moved on to Probability to take a break from all the number sense. In you text, you can now check out pages 357 to 378. We will be completing this short unit next week.
Probability is very fun!
Language: we are continuing to focus on non-fiction report writing and are studying characteristics of non fiction books (index, glossary, diagrams, maps, cutaways, charts). we are beginning to examine proper note taking as we begin to write full reports. Student are researching Titanic to compose a report to focus on their area of interest.
