March 18th Spelling List and Homework Note

A week from today we will have our class Storytelling Competition on the 25th starting after recess. Every student must participate in the  class level. We will choose 3 winners from the class to go to the Grade Level Competition on Thursday, March 28th. Only one student from the grade can be chosen for school competition on April 12th. The story should be told in their own words (no reading a book) but can be a story that was already published. It should be about 3-5 minutes long. A packet about it was sent home last week with all the information. Students need to turn the packet in with signatures and times of when they practiced for different people at home.

A chapter 10 Review was sent home for homework tonight to be turned in tomorrow! We will correct together in class and review for the test on area which will be on Wednesday!

We will have a class party this Friday afternoon from 1:30 to 3:00. Students will be allowed to bring treats and wear jammies.

Thanks!
