What is happening in RM 16?
Week of October 10th
Focus Skill: identify sequence of events
Writing:
Autobiographies
Spelling:
Their spelling list (yellow list this week) can be found in their binders. Please note that it is important to focus on the patterns in their words and not necessarily the memorization of the words. They need to be able to apply what they learn to their writing too.
The packet that is clipped in their binder is to be used with their weekly spelling words.
We will not have spelling tests. I will be looking for the application of their words in their everyday writing.
Math:
Focus skills: triangles, quadrilaterals, symmetry
**We will test over Unit 2 the following week on Tuesday, October, 11th. I will send home the review that we do in class tomorrow as well as any additional skill sheets your child needs for additional practice.
I post links on our Google Classroom that will help reinforce these skills at home :). Your child should know how to log on.
Science:
Scientific Process-They will have a test next week on Thursday, October 20. Look for a review guide to come home this week.
Social Studies:
We will spend this week comparing local, state, and federal governments.
