This week we will continue with our project lead the way module-Animal Adaptations. We will also continue shapes and geometry in math. We finished Unit 5 of Wonders last week and we will review unit 5 this week. Last Friday was our last spelling test! The kids were excited to hear that news;) This week on Wednesday, we will head over to St. Johns to sing to the residence. We leave at 10:00 and will arrive back at school in time for lunch. I will be traveling to Denver with my daughter and her soccer team on Friday, so the students will have a guest teacher. I know they will do great! Please let me know if you have any questions as the year winds down.
Next Monday 5/27 the kids will be off for Memorial Day and the last day of school in Friday, May 31st, with a NOON dismissal-no lunch served. Have a great week!
