Happy Friday! These weeks just keep going by faster and faster!
Writing: In writing this week we have been working on publishing our information books. The kids are also working on slideshows and posters to compliment their writing. They are very excited to share all of their hard work with you at our expert fair on March 9th.
Reading: In reading this week we started a new unit on poetry. We have focused on looking at the various types of poetry and noticing the different author's crafts that are in each poem. Also, we looked at the different parts of a poetry-- lines, stanzas, etc. We will begin looking at figurative language on Monday!
Social Studies: This week in social studies we got the opportunity to watch some of the Little House on the Prairie movie that helped us understand the lifestyles of the time period we are studying. Because of the snow day we were not able to start our interactive Oregon Trail game this week but are looking forward to starting it on Monday.
Math: In math this week we started our first chapter on measurement. We are learned how to convert customary units of length and volume, so far. We will add converting weight to our learned concepts early next week.
Upcoming Events:

Miss DiFranco
