Reading - Students are working on comprehending the difference between fact and opinion. They are also learning to compare and contrast when they read.  Students have been reading about Olympics:  Past and Present.

Writing - We finished up working with similes and metaphors by writing poems about a family member or friend.  We started working on sentence fluency by using a variety of sentence beginnings when we write a paragraph.

Math - Third graders are working on different types of measurement. Second graders are working on beginning division strategies while making fair shares.

Social Studies - Students are gathering information on their selected topics for our inquiry unit on the Olympics. 

Science - We are continuing to study rocks and how thery are formed and what they are used for.

Happy Mother's Day to all!
