We're finishing up time next week and taking our test. We've learned telling time to the 5 minutes, differentiating between a.m. and p.m., and next week will learn about elapsed time. Keep practicing this at home!

We've learned about adjectives and describing characters reading Rosie Revere, Engineer, and we compared and contrasted Rosie to Amelia Earhart. We're going to be reviewing cause and effect next week through literature.
Writing
We're learning how to write a nonfiction report by writing about an animal! Some students chose the same animal they researched for their project, and many chose a new one. Stay tuned!
Science
This week we've been having students start present their projects. All their hard work is paying off and they look amazing!
