Today students worked in the computer lab this morning and practiced typing as well as creating a word cloud on a website called Tagul.  

During readers' workshop, students are looking closely at text (picture). They are stopping and thinking when the story gets complex and also identifying difficult words and defining them.

In math, we went over the Unit 2 math BA.  Your child will be bringing home their BA to sign tonight.  If you would like to have the BA for over the weekend, please let me know.  If not, please sign the attached letter and send it back to school.

In science, we started our unit called Mixtures and Solution and examined 'gravel' with hand lenses.  Students were writing down observations; they were observing color, particle size, shape, etc.
