Math
This past week we continued with our Geometry Unit. Students discussed how we could make new shapes using the shapes that we are given. Students were also introduced to equal/unequal shares as well as cutting a shape in half. Next week, we will continue with fractions and discuss halves and fourths. Their Geometry test will be later next week.
Blackberry Farm Field Trip
Our field trip to Blackberry Farm will be on Monday, June 2nd. The cost is $6 for each student. An additional permission slip went home to those that have still not returned theirs. Please make sure to get it in early next week! Thank you!

Miss Beseth
Miss Beseth you have made a great plan for this week. I appreciate the idea that you had given in the bestessay.org in so simple form. It’s good to cover the syllabus in few little chunks rather than to complete the book in few sittings.
