We began our poetry unit in language arts. The children are having fun creating all kinds of poetry. So far they have made couplets, cinquains, acrostic poems, and diamantes. If you or your child has a favorite poem, please send it in to be shared with the class!
Our mystery reader program is off to a great start. So far my mother "Mrs. Cavanaugh" and Mrs. Timmerman, the P.E. teacher, have read to our class. We have another surprise guest coming this afternoon! There are still a couple of dates open if you would still like to sign up. Just send me an email.
In social studies we are learning all about immigration. I'm sure many of you were interviewed by your children about your family history.
In math we are into our fraction unit. The students are really catching on! Yesterday we learned to change mixed numbers into improper fractions and vice versa.
Here are a couple of photos from our Valentine's Day party.
