Rain, Rain, Go Away...
Language Arts:Today in class we added 4 more word parts to our Vocabulary Vine, enjoyed a 30 minute session on bullying with Mrs. Slater, and reviewed singular and plural nouns. Please ask your child the rules for making singular nouns plural: What do I add if the noun ends in an s? an x? a sh? a ch? What happens if the noun ends in a consonant and a y? What happens if the noun ends in a vowel and a y? These questions are a great review for our end of the week test. In computer lab, we also reviewed this skill by using the Classworks program.

Cereal box projects are due Friday too!
