Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!! Don't forget it is SEP night. We look forward to seeing you! Spelling/Vocabulary: Reading: We will be finishing up the Lightning Thief on Monday :( I'm sad to see it come to an end. We've all enjoyed reading this action-packed book! Writing: To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we worked on Limericks. We learned what a Limerick is and how to write one. We practiced writing Limericks and put our favorite ones on a Leprechaun face. Look for these to be displayed during SEPs! Math: The students have been studying the customary and metric measuring units. It is always fun to see their opinions change from the beginning of the unit to the end. They start off only liking customary because the metric is foreign to them; by the end they think it is so much easier and would rather use metric measurements. Social Studies: We have begun to learn about the Middle Ages that took place all around the world from 500-1500 ad. Science: The students did a wonderful job on their presentations. They were very creative!
