Curriculum Tidbits:
- In reading, we are learning about reading different genres since we began our "All-Star Reading" Challenge.
- Our Bible stories will continue to be about the life of Joseph.
- This week we will review our knowledge of fractions and extend that learning to include finding equivalent fractions.
- In our study of Force and Motion, we will work in groups to create a mini-mini-golf course -- for a marble -- that displays all we've learned in this unit.
- Our Bible memory passage for the month of March is Matthew 28:1-10.
- This week Friday, March 20, 3rd quarter Report Cards will "go live" on PowerSchool. Since we will be meeting at Parent Teacher Conferences shortly after report cards go home, there won't be comments on this report card.
