Thursday, May 9th

Happy Thursday!
We had a busy morning.  Students explored paper folding to find angles without using protractors.  They were challenged to create a design using pattern blocks.  They determined the measurement of acute, obtuse, and reflex angles with out using protractors.  Ask your child to tell you more!

We had a nice trip to the media center.  Next Thursday will be our last whole class checkout day.  All library books will be due to the media center by May 21st.  More information will be coming home soon.

We took a look at the joint resolution for the 19th amendment.  Students looked at and discussed pictures from the women's suffrage movement.  They discussed how women got the word out and how it would be different if we were trying to get the word out today.  Ask your child to tell you about our voting!

We also had a our last day of MAP testing today and are looking forward to explorations tomorrow.
Thank you for the treats, flowers, cards, and other gifts for teacher appreciation week!  I appreciate you all!

Homework: Spelling, Math, Read for 30 minutes
