December 2018
Reading
In reading, students will analyze, make inferences and draw conclusions about and understand expository text and provide evidence from text to support their understanding.
In writing, students will compose a brief composition about topics of interest. Students will learn suffixes and prefixes.
Math
In math we will begin to explore concepts of multiplication and division. We will practice this skill slowly and continue to build on it. We will use visuals and manipulatives to represent making equal groups (multiplication) and sharing equally (division). We will continue to discuss addition and subtraction and how it relates to multiplication and division.
On Dec. 4th we will have a cumulative math DCA test that will test on all prior concepts. Have your students continue to practice counting coins and telling time.
Language Arts
Science
In December the students will finish the unit covering matter by demonstrating that things can be done to materials to change their physical properties such as cutting, folding, sanding, and melting. This will include an expository piece about a hands on activity where the students will work with clay and discover the changes that can be made.
On December 11th the students will take the Science DCA which will be cumulative, covering all the information the students have learned thus far.
