Thank you to all of you who sent in sandwich baggies for our word study words. They will certainly come in handy as we continue our exploration of word patterns.
Fractions are here
In math we are in the midst of tackling fractions, which can be a challenging subject for some students. Remember, if your student is having trouble understanding the home links, an acceptable alternative is to play a math game for that night. If you could please write a quick note letting me know that was what your student did for homework, and sign the note, then I will give him/her credit for the homework in my gradebook. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Next week:
In Social Studies, we will be taking a closer look at Alaska's government
In Reading, we will be finishing our nonfiction investigations. They are looking great!
In Writing, we will continue to look at word choice, as well as practicing our proofreading skills.
In Math, we will continue Unit 7, which works with fractions.
In Science, students will continue to explore variables.
