February!

We are almost finished with the book Hatchet. Students are wanting to read Brian's Winter and The River, which are both sequels. Students are really starting to understand strategies of long division. I offer extra help each morning if kids are struggling with these concepts. Mrs. Parks observed us engaged in a writing lesson involving Similies, Metaphors and Personification. The students did fantastic!

  2. Looks great!

    Zach really likes hatchet...we spent a long time on division problems at home...maybe 3 hours...he's getting it! Send more problems home...with some regular practice he will have it down cold!
