Tuesday Homework and Spelling Test

Students read a short excerpt from the book, "Island of the Blue Dolplins." We also studied spelling words, which are all plurals, and our vocabulary words. I have kept a few students in for a few minutes of recess so we can read parts of the story again to help with reading fluency.

In math class we continued working on equivalent fractions and ordering fractions. Students are understanding this, but they do have a homework sheet that went home to help them understand the concept. They must show all of their work showing how they figured out the answer.

We will have our spelling test tomorrow.

Spelling words:tomatoes, countries, dollars, eagles, inches, leashes, monkeys, numbers, smudges, taxes, relishes, sandwiches, umbrellas, bicycles, ferries, arrows, ages, times, tides, cliffs
