Hello and welcome back! I hope you and your families had a pleasant, relaxing spring break.

We will be wrapping up the drama unit this week, and moving on to novels next week. Please keep an eye out in your child's agenda books for potential prop and costume needs as they will be presenting their one-act plays at the end of this week. Not to worry - no shopping trips required :)

For the novel unit we will be following the literature circle model again as we did in the beginning of the year. There will be a packet that comes home with specific reading and comprehension assignments that will need to be completed. Any extra literature circle roles that are completed will be counted as extra credit.

In math we are continuing to study fractions and decimals. This unit should take us throught the next 3 weeks or so.

With spring upon us, and an increase in extra-curricular activities, I will be providing the students more time to work on assignments in class - and this includes homework. I hope this helps to alleviate the work load at home :)

I hope you have a great week - thank you for your continued support!
