Do you like Green Eggs & Ham?

We had so much fun cooking green eggs and ham as we wrapped up a fun filled Read Across America Week!  And I must tell you all but two friends not only liked, but LOVED green eggs and ham!

What we are learning!

Reading ~ Our focus sound is /y/ as in yarn.  Word wall words are better, called, calling, those, yes, doing.

Language ~ Rule 23-adding and ‘s to show possession.

Math We will continue our Chapter on Fractions. We will probably test near the end of the week.  Look for a review sheet to come home the night before.

A few reminders~

The week after Spring Break grades 3-6 will begin ARMT & SAT testing.  During testing the primary grades are assigned an upper grade to encourage them by providing notes and treats during the week.  Our class has been assigned to Mrs. Mulchay’s 4th grade class.  If you would like to help by purchasing a bag or two of candy let me know and I can tell you some of the specifics of what we still need for our buddies. This is a fun time for both classes as they get to know one another and get ready for their spring tests!  We will also be dressing up this week to get our upper grades excited about doing their best when they take the tests. 

Monday - “We are going to SHINE BRIGHT on testing!” Wear your sunglasses with your uniform.

Tuesday - “Lucky Leap Day!”  Wear your green shirts with your jeans as we wish good luck to our testers.

Wednesday - “Sock it to testing!”  Wear your pants rolled up with your fun & crazy socks!

Thursday - “Hit a homerun on the test!” Wear a baseball hat or a visor with your school uniform.

Friday - “Team Up for testing!”  Wear your Blount shirt or other favorite team jersey!!
