Weekly Updates

We are enjoying our unit about Ingenious Inventions. We are learning a lot of interesting facts about the inventors and their ingenious ideas that helped change our world. This will continue for one more week after spring break. I hope the children are coming home and sharing the interesting facts with you at home.
Tomorrow we have a math test on geometry-rectangles, squares, triangles, perimeter, parallelograms, quadrilaterals, and parallel lines. We are enjoying this fun, hands-on unit. We will begin fractions next. To conclude the year, we will learn about "telling time" and "two-digit subtraction."
We are half way through learning cursive. The children are really enjoying this writing activity! We will finish up the letters this week. Once we have learned all of the letters, the children may begin using it in their daily work.
Report cards go home Friday! Wow, the 3rd quarter flew by! Please continue to practice math basic facts at home through flash cards or XtraMath. While we are learning about measurement, geometry, time, and fractions, I hope the children are still practicing their facts.
Thank you for all that you do!
Have a great week!
Mrs. Montes
