We are in the middle of our subtracting with regrouping math unit. For some children it is very hard. Please take sometime and check to see how your student is doing with regrouping 2 digit subtraction problems.  We made a collage of a winter forest for art this week. It went right along with our guided reading book that talked about the Rocky Mountains and the different levels of trees and animal life.  We had our feast of fried rice, noodles and won tons with sweet and sour sauce. We watched a power point of Mrs. Kitchen’s trip to China and Thailand. We were also very lucky to have Truman's dad came and talked to us about Russia. We will finish our unit on the continent Asia this week. Please sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences. I really love to visit with every parent. I love teaching your children.

We have had a great start to the year 2017.  We have started a unit on Human Rights by experimenting on how it feels to not be allowed drinking water in class. We also are starting units on Matter and the continent Asia. In math we have been working on regrouping 2 digit numbers and in reading our focus has been on expository text about weather and using text features as a comprehension strategy.
