Gym Day on Mondays
Picture Day: November 9th
Word Study: This week
we are studying adjectives and adverbs. This
class has gone from GOOD to BETTER to BEST!!!
Reading: This week
during Reading Workshop, scholars are being introduced to the Fiction Story
Elements such as setting, characterization, problem and solution, etc. You may notice the Reading Log question
prompts relate to these features as well. During Comprehension Strategy skill practice,
we are focused on Non-Fiction story elements and how they help us understand
our reading. Be sure you are reading
30-45 minutes nightly with a just-right book!
Remember, scholars can borrow books from the classroom library as needed. Please let us know if we can help you help
your child in this area.
Science: We are
studying Electricity this week, and having hands on labs and computer time each
day in the classroom. The vocabulary
terms for Unit 4 are due this Friday, and there will be a quiz next week.
Math: Scholars are mastering multiplication and division. We will be working more on order of operation. They need to drill in their heads PEMDAS- Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. They should be able to tell you what each letter stands for (in mathematic terms). We will be having a test on this on Monday, October 29.
