Welcome back!

          Room 23 students have had a busy week back from vacation!  We have been reading a lot of non-fiction, discussion text features and text structure in a way that deepens our understanding.  Here is a great link to the five text structures that we have discussed.  Here is another link that explains text features and allows you to practice using them in an interactive manner.  In math we are continuing to practice multplying fractions and mixed numbers.  There will be a test next week on converting between fractions, decimals and percents, converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers, adding, subtracting and multiplying fractions and mixed numbers, and finding equivalent fractions.  All of these skills can be practiced on IXL.
