Week at a Glance
In Math, we are working on subtracting three-digit numbers and starting the challenging skill of regrouping twice in one problem. We have wrapped up our Earth unit in Science, but we are still exploring and experimenting with some of the ways that Earth changes. In Social Studies, we are diving into our research about South Africa and also learning about other people and places around the world. In Reading, we are celebrating Dr. Suess’s birthday and writing some creative poetry of our own. In Religion, we are talking about the Fruits of the Spirit to go along with our memory verse for the week.
Grandparent’s Day is coming up quick! This year we are going to do something a little different. We had so much fun dressing up for the 100th day of school, that we are going to bring those costumes back out for Grandparent’s Day. Usually, we spend time talking about the things we do with our grandparents, but this year we are going to pretend to BE the grandparents and share with our visitors what we would do with our future grandchildren. So on Friday, March 14th, all the students are encouraged to dress up again. Wigs, canes, trousers, granny nightgowns…what they all wore last time was incredible!

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
