Hi! What a great week. We are in the midst of solving a new hypothesis. We're trying to see if the blue morpho butterfly lives in cut down rainforests or only in actual rainforests. This will help scientists learn about other animal survival rates and show us how important the rainforests are!
We are writing up a storm! We wrote opinion papers, started personal narratives and even wrote about habitats. We have lots of ideas flowing!
We started learning about fractions. We talked about how fractions are equal parts. We practiced breaking shapes up into halves, thirds and fourths. We talked about how 1/3 is saying we are talking about one out of the three equal pieces.
We are reading lots of books each day. Many of the first graders are trying out chapter books. It's an exciting time of year, for sure! Please make sure your child is reading each day at home.
Reminder: Wednesday, March 31st is an early release day.
Reminder: If you haven't taken the online school survey that Mr. Cyr sent out, please do.
Happy Weekend!
