Subtracting Decimals

In English, we are looking at identifying the author's opinion when reading.  Today, we talked about an article about Watson, the computer that played human opponents on Jeopardy! a few months ago.  Students offered their ideas about whether we should develop computers that "think".  What do you think??  We also have been writing about what we would put in a time capsule that, 50 years from now, would let people know what life was like in 2011.  What would you put in?

In Health, growth and development is our topic, with the grade 3s learning about the reproductive process.

Have a good night.
