Week of March 19th

Good afternoon-

What a beautiful weekend!

This week our story is called Fly, Eagle, Fly!  It is a folk tale.  We will work on cause and effect, summaries, and learning about prepositions.  Please look for the Family Times today to check out the vocabulary words for the week.

All graded tests went home today also.  Many kids did much better with reading comprehension this week.

We started a new behavior/work system a few weeks ago.  It is called DOJO.  The students are challenged to earn 15 points in a week.  If they do, they get 20 minutes of extra recess on Friday afternoon.  The student in our class that earns the most points for the week is our "Star Student."  Last week Liam Mitchell was our star student.  Bryan Hertel and Drazen Wilmers have also won this award.

In math we will continue to work on measurement, volume, and capacity.  On Monday's and Tuesday's we've been working on OAA test prep for math.

If your child hasn't passed their multiplication fact test yet-they need to know these before we leave for Spring Break.  We will take one more test this week, and if they don't pass they will have one more shot next week, and that will be it!

Have a great week! 
Congrats to all the Ohio teams in the Sweet 16-especially UC!!!!!!
