And then there were 30....

We are still missing about 30 gifts from the giving tree.  If you have a star, please get your gift to Mrs. Woods quickly.  If you don't have a star and still want to help, we are looking for gift cards to Kohls, Target, and Walmart.  The gift cards will be used to help fill the gaps.  Thank you so much for your generosity!!

Language Arts~
Today we reviewed chapter 9 in Frindle and read Chapter 10.  The Frindle Movement is starting to move beyond the school.  Today the local newspaper got involved.  How big will this thing get?  Today students answered comprehension questions about the chapter, worked on vocabulary and wrote a news article about Frindles.

HW:  Anything that didn't get finished today.

Math~
We continued to work on division.  Today we talked about what remainders really mean.  We learned how to write a remainder as a fraction.

HW:  Study Link 6.4
