Happy New Year! We hope that you and your family had a wonderful winter break. Here is a look at the short week ahead.
In reading and writing, we will begin our poetry unit. In this unit, students will become more familiar with the structural elements and figurative language that we often find in poems. Beginning next week, students will start creating their own poems.
In math, we will continue working on fractions. One focus this week will be on identifying equivalent fractions and being able to explain their equivalency. The second focus will be on converting fractions into their simplest form.
We will begin a new social studies unit about the arrival of the Europeans.
There will be no spelling test on Friday due to the short week.
Report cards will be sent home Wednesday, January 3rd. As always, please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to being back and having a great second half of the school year!
