That’s right, MEAP testing is over! That means that it will be back to our regular routine. Thank you to everyone once again for all of your support with the testing the last couple of weeks. Your kindness and encouragement helped make the children more confident and ready to do their best.
Language Arts: We are finishing the anthology story “Anansi and the Moss Covered Rock”. The children enjoyed many activities and we focused on cause and effect. We also continue to read AR books and take tests. Just a reminder, the children may read these books at home and at school
Math: We have been focusing mostly on number stories, addition and subtraction practice, patterning, split sums algorithm and trade first. You may remember it as carrying and borrowing. This can be a difficult concept for the children. If your child is frustrated please just write me a note and I will be more than happy to go through the homework with them.
Science: We are finishing our Forces and Motion unit. We have learned so many things and had a great time with experiments. We discussed what happens when friction increases and decreases.
