Reading - We will continue to work on our research project this week.   This is a shared research project about a foreign country and how children in remote areas access books. We gathered our research from text as well as a digital source.  Mrs. Sulima is working to help us transfer our research into a slide show on Chromebooks.  When we're finished, we'll be presenting them to the class.

In addition to our research project, we will be learning about different kinds of poetry.  We'll spend time reading and writing poetry.

Reading Reward - We enjoyed lunch in the room on Thursday as our January reading reward.  We voted to work toward a Stuffed Animal Day for completed logs in February.

Remember to return your Six Flags Reading Log if you want your child to earn a ticket to Great America this summer.  The deadline is Feb. 23.  

Math - We will finish our chapter on money and take a chapter test mid week.  Our next focus will be on telling time.   Continue to work on counting collections of coins at home.
