What we did on Tuesday!

Did you see the email about chicken pox that Mrs. Stephan sent?  Check it out!

Language Arts~
Today we practiced sorting our spelling words by open and closed syllables.  Open syllables end in a vowel and closed syllables end in a consonant.  We also worked on making sure that our subjects and verbs agree.  Plural subjects need plural verbs.  We read the story "Sleds on Boston Common"  and discussed how to draw conclusions based on the text.  We began a writing project about characters.
HW:  Continue working on weekly homework.  Flip through a good book is due on Friday.

Math~
We continued working on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators.
HW:  Study Link 6.10

Science~
We talked about good ways to conserve energy within our homes.
HW:  Worksheet and work on study guide.  Test will be next Tuesday.  Expo proposal is due on Friday.
