We began the day with test taking skills. Mrs. Frishman took the 4th graders and Mrs. Butzin took the 3rd graders and they continued to practice writing a cross text response. Next, it was Math. The third graders went on a shopping trip! After lunch, the students had DEAR time and we continued with our science unit on sound. The students created a whistle and explored the differences in pitch. Tomorrow we will make our very own reed instruments! Co curricular classes were Ed Tech and Spanish.
