What's Happening?!
Math: We are going to spend this week introducing area/perimeter. We will then be moving into fraction concepts until Christmas Break. We will continue with our multiplication timed quizzes every Tuesday/Friday. As your child completes those sets, they will be given division flashcards to begin practicing and testing over those facts. Our problem solving strategy this week is Making an Organized List.
English: finish chapter 4, TEST on Friday, DOL Quiz Friday
Writer's Workshop: paragraph of the week, figurative language (idioms, onomatopoeia), Terrific Turkey 3D model and brainstorm sheet due Monday, November 16. I can't wait to see all of the creative ideas!
