It's almost May! (this is giving me mixed feelings!)

I can't wait to be back to class this week! I always feel a little "off" when not in my classroom.


Upcoming this week: 
5/2 –  Last Book Order of the year due
5/2 – Earth Day Movie at Galaxy 16 (12:20-3:20)

Math- This week we will review probability. After that we will begin a year long review.  


Reading-  Last week was our last story from our blue reading Basal. We will conduct a review this week and take our unit test. After all reading scores are entered into my grade book, I will send home a score summary. 


 
Science- Mrs. Clark will continue talking to the students about sound. They are learning how a sound is created from a vibration. Depending on the vibration, it can change the sounds frequency and pitch.  
Writing- We will review creating a topic sentence, main idea, and "give me more" detail sentences.
