What happened this week:
We had a great time on Friday with our grandparents & special visitors. Thank you all for coming to CTA and spending some afternoon time with us.

We also began our biography projects. Each student is researching a different individual. I brought books from the library and Mrs. Schwendenmann is going to help us research on-line next week.

We are completing our multiplication and will be learning division facts next. We have also been studying area, perimeter, quadrilaterals, angles, rays, lines and line segments.
