Looking for a Good Book?

Looking for a good book to read? Bored with what's in the classroom? Explore your local library! Check out this week's New York Times Best Seller List.  Have you read any of them? If not, check with me to see what books are in our classroom library. If I don't have it, check your local library!

States and Capitals

Even though we are in the middle of our Science unit on Magnetism and Electricity, students should still be reviewing the Northeast and Southeast States and Capitals.  All state and capital quizzes will be cummulative.

Rainbow Factor Line

Students have examples of how to use the rainbow factor line to find factor pairs in their math notebooks.  If you need more information check out the video we watch in school today!

Winter Weather

Based on the weather, I would predict we will be having indoor recess for the remainder of the week. However this is a good time to remind students that they must bring a winter jacket, hats and gloves to school every day during the winter months and cold weather.  Students will not be allowed outside without proper attire.
