St. Patrick's Day!

What a fun Friday it has been! We celebrated St. Patrick's Day a little early with some sweet green treats. 
This week we practiced poetry and plays. Each day, the students worked on writing either a free verse or narrative poem of their own. They presented them to the rest of the class; I loved seeing the excitement they had in sharing their creative work. Our reading for the week was a play called "The Baker's Neighbor", and we focused on fluency and inflection while reading it aloud. Today the students got into 2 groups and read it aloud. Their improvement, from the beginning of the week to today's reading, was incredible. Overall. their behavior and effort this week was phenomenal!!! 

Next week, we will dive deeper into fractions for math, as well as energy and motion for science. We will have a quiz over Australia on Monday, and then we will begin learning about Africa.
On Thursday, March 22, we will have a FIELD TRIP to the Nashville Zoo. Students will need to bring a sack lunch. 
Here are some fun pictures from our class this week- enjoy!
