Just a Note
Language Arts
We are learning about the theme or "big idea" and support details within a fiction text.
We are starting a short nonfiction unit tying together several social studies, science, and reading standards. We are going "Back to the Future" and exploring technology from the past, present, and future starting with Alexander Graham Bell and the creation of the telephone.
Math
We are beginning unit 8 this week.
Students are expected to:
- add a two-digit number to a one-digit number with or without regrouping, using a variety of strategies and explain the strategy used.
- add a two-digit number to a multiple of 10 and explain the strategy used.
- recognize when to regroup to compose (make) a ten.
- subtract multiples of 10 up to 90.
- choose a strategy to solve subtraction problems with multiples of 10 and relate the strategy to an equation.
