There will be a Sun Moon and Earth test on Monday 3/20. Social Studies: We've been writing letters to 4th graders in the 50 states as part of The Great Mail Race. The letters will be mailed this week and we look forward to learning more about life in each of the 50 states as we get responses. The kids have also learned a lot about writing letters and addressing envelopes. :)
