Spelling: Unit 4 study the words for a spelling quiz on Friday
Math: I went through each student's math book, to check on progress and many students have pages to work on. I put a sticky on the front of each math book to let students know what pages to work on.
Reading: Students will be sharing a favorite poem tomorrow. They were supposed to bring home the book the poem was in to practice reading it outloud. We have been discussing a lot about poetry, and students should be using the punctuation to help them with expression. Also how the stanzas are structured may also help them, especially if it is a concrete poem.
