What are they learning?
Writing: Students will be taking a narrative through the entire writing process! We are excited to see your students blossom and grow from feedback and revise their ideas to make their narratives the best they can be.
Grammar: There is a grammar test on Friday. Encourage your students to study their grammar in their binders in preparation.
Social Studies: There will be a test over their continents, oceans, landforms, and directions on Friday!
Math: This week we have been working with new strategies to assist them with two and three digit addition problems. This week, we will move on to subtraction and working through problems with a variety of strategies. Students will take a test over rounding and addition strategies on Tuesday and a quiz over addition and subtraction strategies from the week on Friday.
Science: We will continue to explore the properties of matter through a variety of labs! Yay labs! These are always fun days for the kids and for us!
