Week of April 18th

What an exciting week! 
I sure hope you all heard about the biome boxes your children created this week!
They all worked very hard at coming up with a plan, critically thinking about how to execute that plan, and then creating a finished product.
If you haven't walked though our hallways, please stop by and check them out...














Maybe you saw the finished products on Seesaw!
If you haven't subscribed and would like some help doing so, please let me know! 
There is also a lot of operetta practice going on as we gear up for the big night. The children sound beautiful! It's going to be fabulous!

Due to more operetta practice and Grandparent's Day, there will be no memory work this week.

SPELLING and GRAMMAR 
This week students will identify spelling patterns and spell words with hard and soft consonants. In grammar we will continue to review skills and  practice editing. Specifically, this week we will review contractions.
