Language Arts and Social Studies

In Reading,  we will continue to use our context clues to understand the theme of a story. 

In Writing, we will begin working on "hooks" and getting our introduction to our writing to catch the reader's attention. 

In Grammar and Spelling,  we will study homophones, and we will look at 
long o/ o/short o spelling patterns. 

                         Math

In math this week, we will finish our unit on place value and begin our unit on multiplication.
  • We will finish the week with a post assessment covering all the skills learned in our place value unit.
 Next week in math, we will begin our unit on multiplication models and strategies.
  • Determine products of a number and 10 or 100 using properties of operations and place value understandings
  • Represent the product of 2 two‐digit numbers using arrays, area models, or equations, including perfect squares through 15 by 15
  • Use strategies and algorithms, including the standard algorithm, to multiply up to a four‐digit number by a one‐digit number and to multiply a two‐digit number by a two‐digit number. Strategies may include mental math, partial products, and the commutative, associative, and distributive properties
  • Solve with fluency one‐ and two‐step problems involving multiplication and division, including interpreting remainders
Science

In Science this week, we will classify and describe matter using observable physical properties, including temperature, mass, magnetism, relative density (the ability to sink or float in water), and physical state (solid, liquid, gas)

Next week in Science, we will continue to classify and describe matter using observable physical properties, including temperature, mass, magnetism, relative density (the ability to sink or float in water), and physical state (solid, liquid, gas)



Hats and Toys

Our classrooms are a place for learning, growing, and having fun with friends. To help everyone stay focused, we ask that hats and toys stay at home. That way, our classrooms can be distraction-free, and we can all enjoy our time together while learning new things.
