In Language Arts we have started some research on various famous African Americans since this is African American month. Those that have computers at home, your children may need to do some research, if they were not able to locate what they needed during computer time.
In math we continue to work on story problems/long multiplication and division.

In Social Studies we will begin chapter 4, learning about Coastal People.
In Religion we continue to talk about living in God's image and living a holy life, treating all of our Brother's and Sisters with respect and kindness.
I will be sending home a Field Trip form. We will be going to the Seattle Science Center for the Polar Science Weekend that will coincide with the end of the International Polar Year. The cost will be around $10 dollars for entrance and bus fee. I plan to organize a few bake sales to cut some of that cost. More info. coming.
Have a great week, feels like Spring today, not sure why that ground hog says 6 more weeks. Lets hope not!
