Wow were we busy today!  We got so much accomplished! New spelling words were assigned today- the next ten state and capital pairs on the list (with abbreviation).  We started our new story in Journeys today, Riding Freedom.  We also reviewed adjectives and discussed the order that adjectives should be in.  Homework tonight is a worksheet on personification.

The kids did great equating fractions of 10s and 100s to decimals!  Tonight's homework reinforces that skill.

We read about life in the desert in social studies this afternoon.  We found the picture from the sanitarium quite strange!!!

Scholastic Book orders due on Wednesday.  See left side of blog for Valentine's Day update.
