Week of March 9, 2015
The students are working very hard
in math and I am seeing amazing progress! We have been learning how to add and
subtract fractions and this week we are working with mixed numbers. We will be
reading “Encantado: Pink Dolphin of the Amazon” by Sy Montgomery. On this newsletter you will find our spelling
words for the week. Please practice
these words at home as well. The words
in italics are our challenge spelling words.
Let’s have a great week!
