This week was a great one!  We had tons of fun learning our vocabulary with the song  We've Got Talent.  We are still learning it, but it is helping us to learn 10 new vocabulary words and it is helping us with our fluency.  I will post a video of our progress at the end of the unit.

We also honored another ALL-STAR student.  This week's honoree was Haylee.  She was nominated by Kailynn because she's nice, among other reasons.  We are very proud of Haylee and pray that she will continue to set the standard as an ALL-STAR student.

A Virginia Studies test was given on Unit 1!  Most students did very well.  We will begin Unit 2 on Virginia's climate and Indians this week.  In Math, we are working on rounding numbers and in Language Arts, we are reading Because of Winn Dixie.  It is a very sweet book!  I encourage families to read/discuss it with your children.
