Week of 3/3

Post date: Mar 03, 2014 9:56:16 PM

Welcome March! I can already feel my mood shifting and it is only the 3rd day of March! One of my students said today, "Spring is sick and Winter is substituting!" I thought that was pretty cute and right on!

Thank you to everyone who got online and signed up for conferences already! If you haven't had a chance there are still many good spots available.

We will be finishing up our Fraction Unit this week. I have to say, it has gone really well! Remember this is our first experience with equivalent fractions. It will come up again next year.

The kids in my writing group have a due date coming up at the end of the week. I would like them to have their rough draft of their informational report done. This unit will be finished before Spring Break and I don't want anyone caught by surprise with a Final Draft Due Date on 3/28.

We will be working on our next reading unit - Exploring Non-Fiction during this month. It ties into the Informational Reports so well.

Have a great week!
