Mrs. Nawrot's classroom newsletter provides updates on academics and events. Students have been focusing on spelling and using evidence-based literacy instruction. They are reading Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH in class and working on personal narratives in writing. In math, students will learn about decimals, fractions, and using decimals to add and subtract. The newsletter also announces that the third floor food drive is ongoing, with picture day and conferences coming up later in October and early November.
