Highlights
In Social Studies we have continued to learn about Meteghan and we watched a video about lobster trapping.  During Math we created shapes on a geoboard using elastics.  Tomorrow we will finish the novel “The Day of the Dragon King” which takes place in Ancient China.  Spelling assessments will be marked over the weekend and sent home next week.
