Today we continued our work on comparing and ordering decimals and started looking at patterns in numbers. After math, we read Dr. Seuss's Because a Little Bug Went Ka-Choo! and talked about cause and effect. Then we started composing our own Cause & Effect story, that began with Mr. Nalwalker interrupting our class. We finished the story after lunch, then got together with Mingl's class and read our story for the week, a tall tale called "Thunder Rose." Ask your child what hyperbole means. We are on lesson 4 of 20 in our keyboarding program, which we finished after recess. We ended the day with a birthday celebration of glazed doughnuts, yum! See you all tomorrow!

BTW: a math test is imminent. Look for it on Friday. Also, expect our weekly Reading Street test. Spelling begins next week!
