 Hello Parents! Modified blog below.  I'm sorry for assignment mix-up.  We will keep history, grammar and spelling the same for the rest of this week. Reading at home will be Chapters 8 and 9 as read aloud only (questions optional).  Chapter 10 will stay assigned for Friday with questions. 

Regarding Math pgs 123-124 that weren't on the blog. I will do an extra lesson tomorrow in class and decide at that point if students are ready for the test or if it needs to be postponed and given next Tuesday.

*Reminder--please rsvp to the Poetry Recital (Thurs. April 20 at 2:15pm).  Also, please turn in Math Fact Practice Packets tomorrow --Boxcar Children booklets can be turned in next week.
