What a great start to the 3rd quarter. The students have been working hard on new lessons. Everyone was introduced to prefixes, commutative properties of addition and multiplication, plus subtraction operations to the thousands place and with fractions. Students are practicing identifying different times across time zones in the United States. We are continuing study of explorers with Cortez. Botany lessons continued with labeling parts of the plant. First graders were introduced to simple tenses of verbs. Second graders did a grammar review of parts of speech they have had lessons on so far. Third graders finished working with pronouns. Spelling tests resumed and students have new lists being emailed today. We are using The Watsons Go To Birmingham - 1963 for a number of activities such as read aloud from Ms. Genie, creative writing prompts, and character development. Have a nice, long weekend since there is no school on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
