• Report Cards go home and Power School re-opens

Reading Update

  We are working on reading strategies such as Fact and Opinion and Cause and Effect. As you are reading at home, see if your child can give examples of these in their writing. 

Math Update

We are working hard on measurement! The most difficult part of this is having your child memorize the conversions. They will be asked to use the basic measurement for tougher problems. Please practice these at home:
1ft = 12 inches
3ft = 1 yard
36 in = 1 yard
16 oz = 1lb
1 gallon = 4 quarts
1 quart = 2 pints
1 pint = 2 cups
