| Seuss News March 8 - 12 |  | Note to Parents
The book genre for March is poetry. The project is to memorize and recite a 5-7 line poem for the class. We will give our book talks the last week of March, before spring break.
If you haven’t already sent back the conference slip please do. We would like to finalize our conference schedules:)
Today we had a special treat. A group came in and taught “Operation Banking” lessons to the fourth graders. We were also treated to a pizza lunch! Great fun!
We are continuing to meet with Bart (HOTB) for one hour each Wednesday morning. The facts were very interesting last week!
