We are discovering strategies to help us solve addition and subtraction word problems. We are learning about sound and vibrations and how sound travels and how that relates to instruments. We are learning about the writing process and the stages and steps that good writers follow . Reading Math Science Writing Reminders: Please remember on early release days, students dismiss at 11:35am. If your child is going home a different way on that day I need a note to be turned in that morning with your child. Going Green: Mrs. Quigley has started a recycling campaign here at school. Please encourage the use of recycling in home to help form good habits for our children as they become good citizens.
