April 13th-April 17th

Welcome back! I hope everyone enjoyed the week off. It's hard to believe April is almost over already. We have a busy week! Looks like the weather is improving...maybe we'll be able to get outside a couple of these afternoons!

We celebrated Anthony's birthday the week before the break! 

This week...

Reading and Writing

This week, students will be taking the NYS ELA test on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings. Please make sure your child is on time for school during these days, as we start promptly at 9:30. We will continue our read aloud, Island of the Blue Dophins, and students will be continuing their independent reading. We will be doing some fun activities this week to prepare for our next writing unit-persuasive writing!

Math

We will continue the geometry unit. We are also continuing to practice facts. Please make sure your child is practicing facts at home at least 3 times a week- xtramath or flashcards. We will also be preparing for the NYS Math test by practicing word problems and multiple choice questions.

Science/Social Studies

In science, we will be starting the electricity unit. In social studies, we will finish up the United States unit.
