3, 2, 1 things you should know...

3 elements of poetry we've been working on are: noticing stanzas and longer line breaks, many poems rhyme, and punctuation can be used in many different ways.

2 math skills we've been reviewing are subtracting money, breaking down numbers into place value, and solving number stories.

1 thing Jayden wants you know is we had our chrysalises change into butterflies!  They were beautiful!  We released them yesterday and it was awesome to see them take off!
