Our Week In Review

The week before vacation is always fun and full of special events.  We spent our math time reviewing multiplication and division, as well as patterning.  We even participated in a "Digital Breakout".  It was a challenge, but the students persevered!  Your child should have a lot to share about this activity.  
During reading, we reviewed nonfiction text structure and features, in preparation for our nonfiction research about dogs after break.  We also used our nonfiction reading skills to research Canada in order to create travel brochures.  We will continue this work after the break.  We finished writing our "chapter 2" of Claymates, and worked on writing informational poetry.  We practiced our speaking skills by giving our speeches, and we all saw big improvement with this!  We heard from Friends of Frosty, Santa, Mrs. Claus, and a head elf.  Way to go! We also enjoyed some special activities, including crafting, a gallery walk of our treasure maps from PBL, party in a bag and a visit from Mrs. Arroyo.  What a wonderful week we had!
