Reading
Reading Homework:
Read the story and answer the comprehension questions. Please note the directions stapled to the front of the passage. The kids need to underline their answers in the text to prove where their answer was found.
This IS worth 5 points toward their reading grade. Not returning the passage with questions answered receives a zero in the grade book.
Math
- Counting collections of coins: pennies, dimes, nickels and quarters
- solving word problems about money
English and Writing
We finish up our realistic fiction pieces and started a quick animal research project to practice for finding our wax museum research. After a couple weeks of animal research we are starting the wax museum research.
Be thinking of the costume for wax museum (which is in April, but start planning for that now.) We will be doing the "hard stuff" at school. Let me know if you need help getting a costume together.
