Wow! The first quarter has gone by in a blink. We finished with great results in both the MAFT and the LAFT. We finished our first benchmark 5.5 with the class average of 94%. Great job gang!
This month we will be focusing on Addition and Subtraction of Fractions in Math, Verbs in English, Comprehension and Predicting in Reading Groups, finishing Physical Science and moving toward Earth Science, and in History we are learning more about the first Colonies. It will prove to be an exciting month.
Our read aloud about Homer P Figg is almost finished. The next read aloud will be Marching for Freedom, by Elizabeth Partridge. It's a great story about young African American kids fighting for equal rights. They fight along side Dr. King. This story will teach us about the hardships young Black children went through during a time when equal right did not exist.
Please consider purchasing this book for your child to read aloud. It's a great way to earn AR points and learn about important accurate historic events. This book is item 68, and sells for $6.00. Again, please consider purchasing this book for your child. You could also purchase several books for donation purposes. Thanks for your generosity.
