Announcements
Please remember there is no school tomorrow (Friday, Feb. 17) or Monday (Feb. 20.)
Your conference confirmation date/time came home in the Friday folder last week. Please let me know if you did not get it or need to reschedule.
Thank you to everyone who helped with our Valentine's Day party! Here are some pictures our photographer, Amanda Farris, captured.
We also had fun exchanging our Valentine cards!
In the Classroom
We began our Force unit in Science. Students have explored balanced/unbalanced forces as well as predictable patterns in motion. We also did a slide experiment to study friction. Finally, we began to study the force of magnetism. We will continue to work with magnetism next week.
In reading this week, we used an article about Thomas Edison to practice point of view, inferring, comparing/contrasting, and using text features to locate information.
For writing, each student chose a technology topic and is creating a related opinion piece. We are typing these pieces and hope to have them ready to share at our conference!
We finished Unit 5 in math this week. I will have this test to share at our conference. The next unit will continue to focus on multiplication.
