Please make sure your child is bringing a healthy snack and water bottle to school every day.
Dress Code Reminders: Please visit the Crane Schools Site to review the district dress code policy. Students who violate the dress code will receive 2 verbal reminders. Continuous violation of the dress code will result in your child being sent to the office to wait for you to bring an outfit change. Only solid-colored sweaters will be allowed in the classroom. Students who bring hats to school must refrain from using them indoors.
Reading: I can use text and graphic features, context clues, multiple-meaning words, and text structure to understand and explain what I read.
Writing: I can write a informative essay on magnets using clear details and a sequence of events to help my reader understand my experience.
Math: Students will explore and extend their understanding of comparing fractions and equivalence to new types of fractions.
Science: I can create and use a model to show how magnets can push or pull on objects without touching them, and explain how distance, properties, and orientation affect the strength of the force.
Social Studies: I can explain who the Arapaho people are how their culture was influenced by bison.
