*This week I sent home some extra activities that they can do at home to practice skills taught in class. They were each given: A paper with links that provide a list of science based experiments that they can do at home March reading bingo page A reading comprehension page about the boy who cried wolf, there are questions on the back A reading comprehension booklet that they can complete with books from home Some students were sent home with math pages if they needed additional time to complete the work **The class has also earned all of their marbles again, and we will be having a mini class party on Monday. For the class party, they have chosen to pick their own seats, go to the computer lab, bring a stuffie/toy (that must be able to fit on a piece of paper so that they have room on their desk to work), and to watch part of a movie during snack (we will be watching nemo).  Upcoming Dates March 17                        ...
