Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a great holiday break, and is ready to have a great 2014! We are officially halfway through the school year!

Pay attention to the announcements coming home in the next month or two. We are having a Spelling Bee, as well as the Science Fair. Your child will be doing a science fair project at home. It will be half of their science grade. Please make sure your child does not fall behind on their due dates!

Make sure you are logging into Schoolmaster. Since this is a new program, please let me know if you spot anything unusual.

In math this week, we will finish learning how to add and subtract fractions. In reading, we will begin a unit on poetry, and begin focusing on organizing details in a passage. In writing, we will continue working on adjectives. In social studies, we will learn about the Bill of Rights, and in science, we will go over the requirements for the science fair.
