Report Cards
This week...
For writing, we are continuing to practice longer pieces, showing evidence, and using appropriate ending punctuation.
Word Wall practice: Students are practicing identifying and using there, use when, an, and which in reading and writing.
Math: Measurement is our current focus.
Social Studies: Since we wrapped up our Sun, Moon, and Stars unit in science, we are working on two social studies areas of concentration. With the upcoming holiday, we are celebrating the life of Martin Luther King, Jr., and learning why he was important to our past, present and future. Likewise, we are learning about American symbols. The next two weeks we will be focusing on the Statue of Liberty and the Capitol Building.
Homework
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Don't forget we have Monday off to continue celebrating his life and contributions!
BUNDLING UP!
Also, it has been chilly in our room - feel free to send an extra sweater or jacket with your student for classroom use.
