We will spend Tuesday and Wednesday reading biographies and learning more about famous people.
Please, return your child’s March reading calendar on Monday. I will send the April calendar on Monday, so you can update it.

(Spelling)
This week we will review contractions and work on syllables.
We will not have a test this week, so there are no challenge words.

We will begin Topic 13, Add and Subtract with Measurements, this week. Students will learn to measure around objects, perimeter.
