Check you email for a field trip possibility. It is short notice, but if we can get enough drivers, we can go for free!

Picture day! It was nice to see your students dressed up, for a little bit anyway.
Today we deal with multiplying and adding fractions. Remember that when we ADD fractions we need common denominators (3/4 + 1/4) but, when we multiply, we do not (2/3 x 3/4) We also began looking at water on the surface and underground. (This involved some awesome artwork by me. I even uses different colors on the board.)

We also went through the study guide for geography. The test is tomorrow.

Speaking of tests, we will be taking our first MAP standardized test tomorrow, on math. It is important the the students do their best and remember that they are not supposed to get them all right.
