We are at the end of our 8th week of school. I can't believe it!

Mystery Question:
Mrs. Campbell's class held a carwash to raise money to send her to Hawaii. They washed 35 cars the first day and double that the second day. How many cars did they wash altogether?

Mystery Question: Here is a little story to help you learn about Action Verbs. Read the story and see how many action verbs you count.

"Anna, you are too active!" said Mrs. Action/Verb.


"So?" Anna replied as she leapt out the door.


She raced her friend, Donna, all the way to school. But she couldn't sit still. Ms. Sentence, the teacher, tapped her ruler on her desk and said, "Anna, SIT STILL!"


"Yes, ma'am," Anna said as she picked up her pencil.


When the class lined up for Art, Patrick Pronoun whispered, "You'd better stop being so active. You'll get into trouble." But Anna was seeing how long she could hop on one foot and not trip over Donna.


The Art teacher, Mrs. Preppy, was showing the class how to draw snowflakes when Anna tipped over in her chair. Then she did five somersaults right into a table. Anna got a bruise on her forehead and had to go to the nurse.


Then Mr. Noun, the principal, wrote a note home to Anna's parents. And can you guess what her parents decided? No gymnastics, Anna's favorite class, for a week!

This is a great website to read more about fossils. If you don't have time to look at it tonight, maybe you can look at it over the weekend. http://www.wacona.com/promote/fossils/default.html
