“Still waters run deep.”

Monday and Tuesday Brenda and I are chaperoning on the Cape Cod trip with David’s Room.  Elaine and Larry will be in charge.  We will be having our regular classes all of this week.

Last week we did a fun activity with the globe to prove that a larger part of the earth’s surface is water. This week we will begin to think more about water on the earth’s surface, water in our bodies and all of the different forms water can take.  We will be doing some math activities to help us visualize water in percentages.

MNM
Thanks for your help with adding and multiplying decimals.  All kids can get to the answers to MNM with the skills they have but it’s great when parents show another way.  Please find MNM on the back side of this paper.

We are winding up our pirate literature study and will be moving into a look at water myths from around the world.  We will also be reading some non-fiction as a regular part of lit group over the next couple of months.

Homework
1.)    MNM
2.)    Read 3 times/week for 30-40 minutes.
3.)    Practice spelling as needed.  Study sheet due on Friday.
4.)    Practice your instrument for 15 minutes/day.

Thanks!
