Mangrove Story - due Wednesday

We have a field trip on WEDNESDAY to the Ag Expo.  Remember that we will be having a pizza and soda snack on this trip, but we will be back for lunch.  Please let us know if your child should not have this snack.  

There will not be a spelling test next week, but you can prepare for the Unit 26 test after the Spring Break.  

Here's a link to the word list and games:

We are currently reading Mangrove Wilderness on pages 629-645 in our Storytown book.    The mangrove is a very special tree that grows in salt water.   This is an expository non-fiction text.  Students have a homework assignment to reread this story by WEDNESDAY.
