Language Arts:

- Vista Heights school has started a school wide writing program called" School Wide Write" We used a picture prompt to write about . We  discussed the picture by asking many questions e. g

- What do you know about cats?

- What are cats doing?

- What is cats' problem?

- What would cats see, hear, taste, smell , and feel?

We organized our thoughts on an Organizing Map to use them for writing. Organizing and planning is the key to a good writing.

Math:

- We continued practicing multiplication facts .Grade 3s are focusing on 5*5 and grade 4s are focusing on 9*9. Some students are challenging themselves by doing  multiplication with regrouping with 2-3 digits by 1 digit. 

*Keep practicing your  times tables at home *

Art:

- Room 3 has been focusing on the use of line in elements of design. We made an "Optical Art " using curved lines and  made. a pattern with warm and cool color pastels. Ask me what are warm and cool colors?
