I hope you had a wonderful long weekend. We packed a lot of learning in three days. Students used context clues to determine character traits of a drama role. In writing, the children have composed a paragraph about the best part of themselves. Decimals have been compared to fractions and money. We are finding patterns on earth in science- tides, seasons, daylight hours, and shadows.
