In science this week we have been continuing our animal learning. We talked about what our animals looked like. We also learned about the animal babies. We learned about egg laying animals (ovipare) and live birthing animals (mamifer, vivipare).

In reading we are working in small groups and learning various skills. Many students have been jumping levels and making great progress. Some common themes this week:
1. Reading with expression. ! points mean our voices are excited when we read.
2. EZ , ER at the end of a word both sound the same as é
3. ENT at the end of a word is silent.
4. New words this week : sécurité (safety) intèrieur (inside)
In writing this week we wrote a story about what we might see at Easter.
