Reminders: No School on Friday; If you haven't returned the page indicating your preferred times for a conference, please do so. You will receive your time confirmation this week.
Reading: This week in reading, we will be focusing on Character Traits and Main Idea.
Writing: We have been working on writing a "how-to" piece consisting of three paragraphs. We learned about paragraphs and indenting as well. We will continue to work on "how -to" writing both this week and next.
Math: Students are so excited to be learning multiplication! This week we will be focusing on the meaning of multiplication. We will be working with arrays, writing multiplication as repeated addition, discussing the commutative property of multiplication, compare multiplication to addition to determine similarities and hopefully squeeze in some multiplication problem solving. I think that is probably enough for 4 days! I don't think we will be bored:) Even though we are moving on to multiplication, please continue to work with your child on basic addition and subtraction facts if you received a packet for this.
Social Studies: We are going to learn about the purpose of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
