MATH

Today was our first lesson in fractions. We learned that the numerator is the top number on a fraction and tells us how many equal parts there are in 1 whole. A denominator is the bottom number in a fraction and tells us how many equal parts there are in total.

LANGUAGE

Today was our spelling day. The students wrote the lesson 22 words in their agenda and then completed the corresponding activities.

U.O.I.

Due to spring fundraiser, we did not get to UOI today as we had a house game and announcements during last period. I hope to find some time tomorrow to get back on track!

Great job St. Judes on raising over $3000 so we could wax Mr. Palumbo's legs!!

Mr. Palumbo's class also raised the most money today so they get PJ day tomorrow. Lets go my class...lets see how much we can get!!

Have a wonderful night!
