***Multiplication Skills of the Week – 62, 72, and 8s
Monday – STEM @ 10:30
Tuesday – Library @ 9:30
- Multiplication Madness party on March 28th. I sent out a Bloomz message to ask for volunteers for the day of and for supplies. Please check Bloomz!
- Curiosity Museum field trip- Wednesday, April 10th
- I have all of the permission slips in, but not everyone has paid yet. Please do so
This month I am asking students to memorize at least one of the attached poems to be performed in front of the class before April 1st. This is a great opportunity to work on our fluency, phrasing, and performing skills. We will be doing a class musical in May and this will serve as an audition of sorts. Students are welcome to memorize and perform as many poems as they would like. I will be paying class money for each successfully performed. I will be sending home a hard copy with each student. Feel free to click on the link March Poems or the picture to view online.

We will continue our story this week with “Nora’s Ark”, which falls under the genre of historical fiction. The comprehension strategy that will we working on is make, confirm and revise predictions. Our essential question this week is: How does the weather affect us?
Reading Homework
Our goal is to have student’s read 20 minutes per night. Please keep tract of reading minutes on the monthly reading log. February’s reading log will come home on Monday.
Math Homework
Each student will need to get onto www.reflexmath.com (access under student links on the Quest website, or on the blogs sidebar under Class Links) and complete their “green light” Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (3 sessions). Just in case students don’t remember, the class username is “Beckstead3″ and all passwords are “rams”. If students do not complete Reflex at home they will complete it during recess time.
