The first quarter is almost over! Can you believe it? As a reminder, please encourage your child to be reading and working towards getting 100% of their goal by October 17- NEXT Tuesday! Those who do will be participating in a special activity day on the 20th. Our hope is that all students participate in our quarterly party.
This week in math, we are finishing up our area and perimeter Playground Activity. I am sure you have heard all about it! The students are excited and have some great thoughts on how to use our space outside!
In social studies, we will be finishing up our unit on federal and state government. We will review on Tuesday and test on Wednesday. Your child has a packet that we completed in class. They should be bringing it back and forth from home to school to use it as a study resource. we will begin our next unit in Science on Thursday.
In reading, students are still working with vocabulary while reading The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. They will finish that unit up on Friday, October the 13th! Spooky!
In writing, students will finish up their expository writing and work on revising and editing. They will then begin work on an argumentative piece that tries to convince the readers to pick their playground options and why.
Spelling this week has no rule and is a review of the words from the previous weeks.
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
