Keep bringing in your items for our spring fair basket. Our theme "the love of reading and chocolate"

As it is a short week and I was away yesterday the Friday Test will be given on Thursday (tomorrow) and will only include spelling and math (times tables and equivalent fractions).

We started the day with M.E. writing a one page report for our May project. This was followed by math where we are exploring equivalent fractions. The concept is if you multiply or divide both the top and bottom number of a fraction the resulting fraction is equivalent. Some students managed to find the right answer but did not totally understand the concept.

After recess the students had music with Mrs. Awalt followed by an art project making a face by cutting out colored paper. I thought this would be quick, however, it took the entire time from recess until noon, and some were still not finished.

The afternoon began with finishing off the art project and or reading. Once finished the art the students were given time to work on the assignments that are due tomorrow. The main one I am looking for tomorrow is the design your own animal project. If finished the students will be rewarded with time for some Easter Activities in the afternoon. Those not finished will be rewarded with an extended work period. ha ha rewards all around.
