WEEK OF MARCH 7-11

Dear Parents,
* Tomorrow report cards go home and I am proud to say our class has done really well this trimester even though it was a very challenging one.
* In class we are preparing our Powerpoint Presentation Speech of our Heritage Project. Your child chose their day already to present them.
* In class we are using the iPad to learn our Math facts together along with Geography/States and Capitals.
* We have also begun our 5-paragraph persuasive essays using at least 3 different sources from the Internet. We used a graphic organizer to help us organize this project. This essay should be finished in class. I can't wait to read these because there are some great topics.
* Next Thursday, March 17th, the school will have the Big Spin in the Cafeteria at 1pm to honor many students.
* Our field trip is next Wednesday, March 16th at 8:30 a.m. when we go to see the play, Aladdin at the Aptos Junior High School.
* There is NO vocabulary assignment this week!
* The first of two Family Life talks will be tomorrow. Students w/out a permission slip will go to another class at that time.

That's it for now!
