Here's the Latest News From Room 300!

We are looking for desk drawers!   Well, actually they are the covers on the cartons reams of copy paper come in.  It would be awesome if anyone can get these covers at work for us because we are going to use them for drawers in the desks.  These covers are the perfect size!

Fractions will be out focus in Math this week.  We'll be working with equivalent fractions and comparing fractions.

This week, we begin a practice long composition on an important person in your life.  Everyone is going to focus on a timeframe in order to complete their composition.

We will also continue to practice with MCAS passages this week.  Everyone should be using Evidence Based Terms in order to write "4" quality open responses.  Using your MCAS strategies is really showing in your MCAS work!  I am impressed!
