Today we... had a guest reader in our class from Open Minds Zoo School who read us a stories and shared some 'biofacts' with us from the zoo, exhanged our books at the library, played 'Sticks and Stones', learned different strategies for finding equivalent fractions, finished our Kinex creations and shared how they connect to the new science vocabulary, and examined and discussed what some famous people had in common, and characteristics they share.

UPDATES & REMINDERS:  Tomorrow is Fun Lunch and D.E.A.R. Day.  Friday is flashlight reading (students may bring in a flashlight from home).  Next Thursday, March 14th is Spring Photo Day.

Keep up with all the reading you have been doing at home for Read-A-Thon!!
