Curriculum Updates                 Paper folders came home today!

Technology Update from Mrs. Kortas

Reading: We continue our reading journey through Number the Stars. The girls are really understanding and appreciating the sacrifices Annemarie's family is making to support her friend Ellen. We also completed the "mythological creature" bracket for our own version of March Madness. Our next bracket is judging parts-of-speech using a chosen criteria. This is a fun way to analyze words!

Math: We completed our first mini-unit on fraction computation. We are continuing to practice the order of operations in math expressions. The girls have enjoyed this type of solving and review of basic facts. 

Language Arts: We are preparing for a peer interview project. The girls will interview an assigned fourthie and write a descriptive article about her. They will use the fourthie's photograph to create a magazine-style cover to accompany the article. 

Social Studies: We are taking notes from the historical fiction novel Ranger: Long Road to Freedom. We are working towards a Civil War project "museum exhibit".
