In Reading, we have been learning about the different aspects of non-fiction text, and have practiced looking for main ideas, facts, and summarizing. 

In Writing,  we are learning about how to write an expository essay. The students learned the parts of an expository essay, and that their main ideas need to help prove their thesis statement. They are in the publishing stage of their first essay, and will be starting a second one soon!

In Math, we have learned how to add and subtract fractions with common and uncommon denominators. We are now learning about decimals, percents, and fractions and how they correlate.

In Social Studies, we finished up the Native American unit with the Pueblo tribe. We are now going to start our next Science unit, Light and Sound.

We will be starting a new Classroom Management Program soon! Stay tuned!

Congratulations to all of the performers that participated in last night's Band and Orchestra concert! I was so proud to watch you all perform, and you did an excellent job! I am looking forward to all the future concerts!

BRAVO!
