**Poetry
This month I am asking students to memorize at least one of the attached poems to be performed in front of the class before March 29. 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.

Math in Class
We will continue comparing fractions using greater and less than symbols. Please watch for the family letter to come home and discuss it with your child.
Language Arts in Class
We will continue our story this week with “King Midas and the Golden Touch”, which falls under the genre of drama/myth. The comprehension strategy that will we working on is make, confirm and revise predictions. Our essential question this week is: How do you decide what’s important?
