April 18th

5th Grade Math: Students learned about rounding decimals. We talked about when you would round down, round up, or round to the nearest number. I used examples such as interest on your bank account, figuring out your grades, and running for track or swimming. They will need to use this knowledge to help them with their homework tonight which is pages 139 & 140 in their workbooks.

4th Grade REWARDS: 4th graders are now using the REWARDS strategy to help them decode words while they are reading. This will help them while they are reading books at home for fun, reading a text book, or even with their spelling words. This week's passage is about an athlete named Wilma Rudolph and some the struggles that she has been through on her road to the Olympics.

2nd & 3rd Grade Read Naturally: Congrats to Josh who earned a book after completing his 36th story! Way to go Josh!
