Happy Monday Everyone!

This week we are beginning our social studies unit on economics.  We will be learning about goods and services, supply and demand, needs vs wants, saving and spending, and income and taxes! Students were able to get with their partners (if they want to work with a partner) and brainstorm ideas for the good or service they want to do for Market Day.  Wednesday I will approve ideas and then they will come home for your approval.  Please do not feel like you have to spend money on this project.  There are plenty of ideas they can do for little or no cost at all.

Our spelling words this week have the -ge and -dge spelling pattern.  In math we started our unit on measurement, data and multi-digit computation with marble rolls.  If you haven't already, jump on Dojo and see the pictures I posted today.  They are having so much fun!

Looking ahead to next week we have field day on Friday, May 11th.  We would love for you to come join us.  More information will be coming home next week.

Have a wonderful week!
