WEEK OF APRIL 26-30

This week we had some awesome weather. We also finished our Literature Circles and are now working on the final project. In Gym we are starting high jump for Field Day 2010! Most of the classmates have finished their art project.

The month of April is coming to an end but lots of Birthdays are coming up!We are learning about different religions in social studies. To wrap things up we have a new box of encouraging letters. How it works is if someone says something nice to you put the name and what they said then put it in the box.

This was an awesome week!
