This week our students have been working hard in the area of writing. We have been working through the writing process to create a story. We also are beginning an expository unit that will extend through next week. In math, we have been having a blast with our Data and Graphing Unit. Each student has been creating surveys, surveying other students, charting/graphing the data collected, and then interpreting and analyzing the results. During reading we have been learning about the history of Oregon in an informational text study. 

Our informational text study is preparing our class for our field trip to the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center in Baker City. The tentative date for this trip is Tuesday, May 6th. We will be returning home from the trip around 4:45 P.M. We will be needing lots of adult volunteers for this field trip. Please make sure you are up to date as an approved volunteer for the district. More specific information will be sent home soon.

I would like to take a minute to let everyone know the final round of OAKS testing will begin Friday, April 18th and continue into the next week. The final day of After School Math will be on Friday, April 18th as well. 

The secret word this week is, "data." Thanks for all that you do!
