This is our week of Language Arts testing. Testing will take place Tuesday and Wednesday. The kids are definitely ready. Today we chatted about last minute tips for the test and calmed any nerves they had.
We also had one more battle of the essays. Ask your child about it! Posted below are pictures of the winners and the brackets.
This week, we also made games to review our reading skills. We played them today and will continue to play them tomorrow too. This week, we will also be reading about Arbor Day. Kids will be creating posters and writing poems to celebrate this special day in honor of trees. We have a special celebration in May with our mayor and some other community members in honor of this day. The Arbor Day Craft and/or Photo is due by April 18.
This week, there is no reading log. Kids should still be reading 20 minutes a night. A project is due this Thursday related to Germs and Disease Prevention. There will be some time in class, but if not finished, kids will have to complete it at home. They will share these in small groups on Thursday. It should be fun!
