Today we had a change in our class schedule due to the 3 hour early dismissal. Yesterday, we took a test on Chapter 2 and today students were given test back. Students were introduced to the next chapter in math which is division. We completed and went over a page in math books to see if they were ready or not for this chapter. Students had 7 vocabulary words for Chapter 3 Lessons 1-4 to put into their notebooks. Have a great weekend!
