Highlights:
*There will be a Math Test on Tuesday, May 15th. A set of review questions will be sent home tomorrow. We will also be sending back all homework pages tomorrow for you to review and for the students to make corrections to ensure their understanding before the upcoming test. Please study over the weekend! 

Spelling quizzes were marked and sent home today. There are only a couple more weeks of spelling left for this year! 

The students worked on two reading comprehension pages this week. Please see their work in their green folders. If it says 'homework', please work with your child to complete it at home and bring it back to school. Check out this link to see the size comparisson of Earth to the rest of the galaxy! 

The students are busy working on writing/drafting their slides for their rainforest animal research presentations! They can't wait to show you their work at the Celebration of Learning! 

Happy Mother's Day!!
