2nd Grade
This week we learned to compare lengths to determine the difference between two objects. We continued to work on word problems that involved measurement. We took our test on measurement on Tuesday, Nov. 13th. This test was sent home today in the Friday folder.
When we return after Thanksgiving break we will learn about telling time. We will learn to tell time using an analog clock.
3rd Grade
This week we learned about patterns in addition and multiplication. We used a table to record the pattern and then found the rule that continues the pattern. We analyzed the results of adding an even number plus an even number, an odd number plus an odd number, and an even number plus an odd number. In addition, we analyzed the results of multiplying an even number times an even number, an odd number times an odd number, and an even number times an odd number. This information is helpful as we continue learning our multiplication facts and when we add or multiply larger numbers.
When we return from Thanksgiving break, we will learn about finding area and what the square root means.
5th Grade
This week we continue learning about multiplying decimals and started dividing decimals with base ten blocks. We took a daily grade on Friday, Nov. 16th.
When we return from Thanksgiving break, we will learn about fractions. We will connect how decimals and fractions are related and then move into adding fractions.
Donations Please
We are in need of skinny markers for our classroom. We use these markers for checking homework, making charts, and note taking on a daily basis. We would greatly appreciate it if you could donate a box to our classroom, please. Thank you so much for your kindness.
Happy Thanksgiving!
It has been such a pleasure working with all of your children. They are smart, hard working individuals who strive to do their best. I am grateful for their kindness and the way they work together in class. I am thankful that we are on this journey together. Have a wonderful, safe, fun, and relaxing Thanksgiving.
