In case they express differently, here's their reaction when I asked who was ready to clean their rooms, do dishes and hang out with family for 5 days:

Long Division Review
Hey Kiddos!!!
Need a quick refresher on our long division strategy?!? Here it is!!!
One step that I skipped over was estimating my quotient. We'll review this practice in class. Estimation is a great first step because it lets us know if our quotient is reasonable.
(p.s. Apologies for the sniffles...apparently we really do share everything in Team Wilkinson!!)

Dear daddy and summer
thanks for visiting the blog today we have had a great week on team Wilkinson so let me tell you about it.
In math we have started a new unite its division it is kind of easy but kind of hard for me. So you might know how to do it don't you? it is really fun to learn. you should try it. it is really fun
In literacy we are reading I survived the Japanese tsunami,2011 it is a very interesting book. You should really read it. we are already on chapter 4. the begin was kind of sad but it is really cool.
In science we are learning about fast earth changes. like land slides and volcanoes. it was really fun.
I hope you enjoyed my family journal and all the stuff we have learned this week on team Wilkinson have a great weekend see you next week on team Wilkinson.
love,
Sadie

Dear Mom and Dad,
Thank you for visiting the blog we've been learning a lot of new and cool things
this week and I am here to tell you about them. For greeting we saw the golden spoon award it went to another class in the other grades but it's still super fun to go to it starts on Mondays sometimes.
In math we've been learning estimation and super verbs do you know about that
or do you not because I can tell you about it. A super verb is a word like this Explain, Justify, and Prove. And I remember that you don't really don't know how to do Partial Quotients I will teach you how here's how you do it. Ex.
260 divided by 9 you would multiply anything under that
number like 180 - 260 170- 90= 80- 72= 8
anything you multiplied add it up and that's the answer
In literacy we learned how the setting matters like it can change you like your
mood and the characters actions also it changes the plot. The best book we've read that we have to do the setting is cloudy with chance of meatballs. And I am going to tell you about a little about writing
to in writing we've been writing about story's about sentences. And also we've been reading about a tsunami book Its "a I survived" series its a series about people that survived super super bad things
In science we've been learning about landslides I now that they are caused by
rain and if your next to a hill it can happen. We've also been learning about volcanoes lately they are super cool. And I am going to talk about my favorite volcanoes my favorite one is a composite one.
Great news! Since I typed my journal this week, you don't have to worry about signing my red folder!! :)
Sincerely,
Logan

I infer...
Ask your child about making inferences using artwork...such CREATIVE minds and hard workers!!
Today, we discussed using adjectives to make our writing more descriptive. Then, we graffitti'd our table to capture our thinking before we crafted our inference.

Water Weathering and Erosion
On Friday, we explored the slow change water has on landscapes. The slow drip eventually weathered the original land formation (represented by birdseed) and eroded into an entirely different looking landscape.
Thanks!!!
Thank you to Mr Stogner, our WatchDOGS volunteer on Friday!! Not only did our boys appreciate the time he took in helping us solve our reading mystery; but he was quite entertaining at lunch, helped us practice division strategies and even showed us how a broom works most efficiently!!
Thank you!!!!
