Week of 2-22

Here's what we are learning this week:

Religion: Jesus offers us "living water" which is the Good News and his body and blood in the sacrament of Holy Communion. Catholics are open to all. We are attending Mass every Wednesday at 8:30. Parents are welcome to join us and sit with us if you can.

Language Arts: We are reading the story Sam and the Lucky Money and working on the concept of setting--time and place--and how it affects the characters. Story test on Friday. Spelling words have tricky letter combinations. Spelling tests on Thursday and Friday. Language--adjectives.

Math:We are finishing up chapter 7 on division and word problem strategies. There will be a chapter test on Friday.

Social Studies: Native American cultures today. Look for a famous American project to be assigned this week.
