Welcome back to school!  I hope all of you have had a fun and relaxing holiday. 

In January, the students will be working on informational writing and reading.  We will begin to study space in science and this will include a project.  The reading groups have some fantastic novels to read for this month.  In math, we will review geometry and division.  We will begin comparing decimals and fractions.

Conference forms will come home on the first week of January.  Please return these ASAP so I can set up a convenient conference time.  The students will be dismissed at 12:30 during that week.
