Ford Rouge Friday!

Today's field trip was AMAZING!  Your children learned so much information about the history of Henry Ford and the Rouge Plant.  THANK YOU CHAPERONES for joining us, our trip would not have been as successful as it was without you!  I took some pictures and put them into the comic below:

When we returned, we had math.  In third grade math we checked the 4.5 and 4.6 math boxes and then completed two explorations in lesson 4.8 on JPs 92 & 93.  The HW is: JPs 91 & 94 and HLs 4.7 & 4.8.  There are NO FRIDAY FACT TESTS this week.  They will resume on Tuesday.  

After math we had spelling.  The kids took their test and the new lists will be distributed next week.  We discussed getting headphones to keep at school after the break.  So, over the course of the next two weeks, if you could locate a pair for your child to keep here at school that would be great!  If the headphones had a microphone that would be even better!

Have a wonderful weekend!
