Math
This week, we will be doing some group math activities. We will do some "Stock Market Math" and will be creating geometric villages. On Tuesday and Wednesday, students will take the accelerated math test. This test, along with teacher recommendations, will help us determine the accelerated math class for next year.

ELA 
This week, we will finish The Kid in the Red Jacket for Read Aloud. Students should continue reading independently and should write reading letters. We will have our last spelling list this week. There will not be a June reading calendar. In Writing, students are making "compliment cards" for their classmates.
