Hello All - 

This week we will continue reading Dex Heart of a Hero and practice identifying how characters respond to major events in a story.  Our spelling pattern this week is long o using -oa, -ow, and -o. We will look at the shades of meaning between different adjectives and verbs (fast, swift, rapid).

We are reading our biographies in class and answering the questions about our person.  Please help your child remember to bring their book and questions to school if they have not already.  The people posters will be due on the date your child presents their report - boys on Feb. 20th and girls on Feb. 21st 

We are beginning our unit on geometry.  This is always a fun unit.  Students love to learn about shapes!  In science we continue our unit on the Earth's surface and will be looking at bodies of water.

Looking ahead to next week we will have spring and class pictures taken on Friday, February 15th.  Class pictures must be preordered, but you will be able to order individuals from proofs.  

On Thursday, February 14th we will exchange Valentines with each other.  Information and a class list came home on Friday.

Have a wonderful week!
