Week of 4/3/17 - 4/7/17

After school today we begin Spring Break!   Have a wonderful, relaxing break and be safe!  The week after Spring Break starts our PARCC testing.  We’ll be testing Math the first week and ELA the following.  Please make sure your child gets a good night’s sleep, a healthy breakfast, and a good snack!   Most importantly: Chromebooks need to be fully charged every night and earphones should be brought to school daily!

Social Studies:   We continue reading about the beautiful city of Chicago.  This week we’ll focus on writing a story from Mrs. O’Leary’s cow’s point of view!!   There will be a test on the second portion of our Eyewitness Chicago packets on Wednesday, April 5.  Packets and books may be used during this test.

Science:   We’ll be taking a brief hiatus from Science.
