Updates

I hope everyone enjoyed their spring break. I had a relaxing and restful break. My husband and I went to San Diego for a little getaway and had a fabulous time. Break is always too short!
We are closing up our Ingenious Inventors unit this week. On Friday, we will have a test on the vocabulary words and the pictures that go with them. They will identify the word, meaning, and connect the inventor and his invention. A study sheet will go home Thursday.
Next week we begin MAP testing on the computers for the Clydesdales from 12:30-1:30. The following week the Appaloosas will be testing. If you volunteer in the afternoon and want to switch to the morning those weeks that would be fine. Otherwise, Ms. Salas could always use some volunteers to listen to the children read in Spanish to practice fluency. We will not have a spelling and vocab test next week, but the following Friday, April 19 we will.
I will be gone next week Tuesday-Friday at a math training in New Mexico. I will have a fantastic substitute here taking care of your children. She was Mrs. Pawelko's maternity leave substitute. Volunteers please still come in to give her a hand. We will need extra hands here Tuesday -Thursday for a special project the connects to Art class. There is a lot of creativity and writing with this activity so any help Mrs. Lowrey can get is always appreciated!
The year is winding down to our last 7 weeks. I love these classes and every minute we have together.
Have a fantastic week. Hopefully we will start to see signs of Spring soon!
Mrs. Montes
