This week we have so many things going on.  It is the end of our 3rd quarter on Wednesday, March 14th. Which means AR goals are done at 3:00 on Wednesday.  If they have met their AR Goal then they will get to go to the AR party on Friday afternoon.  If they have not then they will stay behind in class and work.  This has been the same rule we have had the entire year.  Each student made a goal at what they wanted to hit.  So it is self-appointed and they are responsible for choosing books on their reading level and signing up for an AR test.

Congratulations to both of our High School Basketball teams who made it to the Final Four at State last week. The girls ended up taking 2nd and the boys took 3rd!! Amazing year for both teams!

This week we have the following target skills;

In Reading, we will read a story called Galimoto.  We are working on the skill of asking questions(wondering) to deepen our understanding.  We will also review how to use a dictionary.  Our new vocab words this week are; fetch, murmur, sturdy, and guide.

In Writing, we are working on choosing drafts we worked on previously and publishing them for an end of the year book.  We are looking at the tools around the room we will be able to use, features of a published book, and speaking clearly to others. We will; finish it with looking at how we can assess ourselves as we go as well as our peers.

In Science, we are using Sound Stations to look at the vibrations a sound makes.

In Math, we are working on subtracting 3 digit numbers; rewriting them, across zeros, and problem-solving.
