February 23-March 13 Update

Dear families,

In Language, we are beginning our unit on fables.  These timeless stories will help us delve into the magical world of fantasy while learning about morals, classical characters, and the paradigm of right and wrong.  This unit will help students understand elements such as: plot, character, and setting.  After the March break, each student will compose his/her own fable and publish it with creative illustrations and narration.

We will be visiting Pape Public Library on  Tuesday March 3rd to explore Fables :)

In Math, we are learning about 2-D geometry (Chapter 7). The students will learn about tangrams, polygon properties, angles, congruent shapes and how to sort polygons based on their properties. At home, challenge your child to locate congruent shapes and identify the angles as either (right angles, acute angles or obtuse angles).

Have a great couple of weeks everyone!
