Wax Museum

I sent home an important letter today about the Wax Museum. It would be very helpful if you were able to practice the speech that will come home with your child on Thursday. Our Wax Museum will be at 2:30 pm on Friday, April 1st. Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

Reader's Workshop
      We are working on our first person narratives, and we will write our speeches this week. We are also looking at some reading passages and questions that we might see on the upcoming ELA. Just a reminder, this test will take place in the classroom on the mornings of April 5, 6, and 7th.

Writer's Workshop
      We are learning how to write an essay. We have worked on using boxes and bullets as an outline structure, and we are moving on to using a T-chart to help us with a compare and contrast structure.

Math
      This week we will finish our geometry unit and begin a unit about volume. We are also working on reviewing for the NY state Math test which will take place in the classroom on the mornings of April 13, 14, and 15th,

Science
     We are working on our Solar System projects. The students are using the research to write about each planet of the Solar System. We are pretending we are tour guides, and writing about what each planet has to offer, if we were able to visit.

Thank you to our Mystery Readers from the last few weeks!
