It's hard to believe it's already November! Let's hope this beautiful weather keeps up!
This week in writing we will finish up final drafts of our presidential opinion pieces. We are so excited to present our opinions next week and do a mock presidential election! It has been a lot of fun and we've had great discussions and debates with this unit!
Since we only have school 3 days this week, we will not have a spelling list or test this week.
In math, we are switching over to division. We will begin by using our basic facts to divide numbers and then build into harder division. If your student will continue working on their basic multiplication facts, division will come much easier to them!
In science, we will begin a unit on ecosystems. We will learn about how each organism in an ecosystem is important and how they work together to survive. We will also learn about different adaptations living things have they help them to survive. There will be a test over this unit, that date is TBD.
In reading this week, we will wrap up our Sleepy Hollow book discussion and move on to election coverage. This will be a fun way to work on reading non-fiction texts, while also learning about something relevant. This will also work well to blend social studies and our opinion writing together.
