HANDWRITING
The students discovered there are not many words that have an "ough" which has a "long o" sound. Two we know are though and dough. Can you think of the third one that the students found? The students wrote two words four times or three words three times and the date once.

MATH
We started our new Multiplication and Division Math unit. Today we discussed how counting groups of things is faster than counting each thing individually. The students learned that a Multiplication sentence should look like this:



The 3 is the number of groups.
The 4 is the number of things in each group.
The 12 is the total number of things or the product.

The students started working on page 270.

FINE ARTS
Today we finished our Easter baskets. Who knows what the Easter Bunny may put in them? We also practiced our poems for Music Festival and read some more "39 Clues".

SHOW & SHARE
We had a bonus show and share today and saw a Bionicle and a deer antler.
