Monday, November 16th

Welcome back!  I hope that you enjoyed a restful weekend!

We continued our explorations of metric measurements.  We are using our knowledge of measurement to convert measurements of length using place value strategies.  Students are continuing to inquire into area and perimeter during small groups.  They worked today to create quadrilaterals using color tiles.  The measurements were determine by the cards drawn from a deck.

We enjoyed our media center visit today!  Students are completing their unit on our research engines.  They have been following task cards and completing reflections using their iPads and Google Classroom.

We worked this afternoon to use our knowledge about opinion writing to develop reasons to support our opinion.  Students utilized a past text to find examples of reasons that supported the author's opinions.  They then worked with their graphic organizer to add their reasons.  Ask your child to tell you more!

Ms. Ehmer sends a huge thank you for all the the kindness and thoughtful gifts you sent for her birthday last Monday.  She had a wonderful day!

We are incredibly excited about our upcoming Thanksgiving Luncheon!  Our lunch begins at 11:40, and we would love to have you join us to celebrate.  We have so much to be thankful for!

I hope you have a great evening!  Check out the picture below!  These girls participated in the Girls on the Run 5k over the weekend.  We are so proud of you!!!
