Math
In math, we are beginning our unit on Measurement. We will start by learning about area and perimeter. Please take any opportunity that you can to discuss the difference between area and perimeter with your child and look at real world examples of each as you are out and about!
Science & Social Studies
In science, we are continuing our unit on Patterns of the Earth. We are measuring and recording changes in weather and making predictions. We are also learning about the water cycle and the important role that the sun plays in that cycle.
In Social Studies, we're wrapping up the 7th unit, and moving into the Civil War era. We'll be learning about the important role Texas played in the war and the Reconstruction efforts afterwards.
Reading & Writing
In Writing, we're starting a new composition. We are increasingly becoming ​great writers!!
In Reading, we will focus on putting all of the strategies we have learned so far into action to analyze literary texts.
Our writing benchmark (STAAR simulation) is scheduled for January 31st. We ask that you please make sure your child is present on this day.
