This week we finished reading "My Father's Dragon" by Ruth Stiles Gannett.  It is such an entertaining story with lots of twists.  We have been working hard to re-tell the story using words and on paper.  We are looking forward to reading part 2, "Elmer and the Dragon".

In math we looked at simple number patterns.  Patterns that grow by 1, 2, or 5. Skip counting by 2's and 5's to 100 is a skill that should be practiced at home.  It's seems a little tricky for some of us.

We set a classroom goal of 100 Food Bank items for We Scare Hunger.  So far we have collected 10.  Keep on sending them in!
