Welcome back to a full a week of school! The kiddos completed MAP testing last week. They did a great job with their first computerized test of the school year. Thank you to everyone that volunteered to send in things for our solar cookout on Friday. We are still in need of several items so I will send an updated list shortly. We have our fingers crossed that it will be a warm and sunny day!
enVision Math
We will estimate differences, make sense of addition and subtraction equations, use problem solving to evaluate reasonableness and take the Topic 2 test.
Rigby Reading
We will continue theme two in Rigby this week. The focus will be on asking questions to promote thinking before, during and after reading.
Reading logs will continue this week. Please make sure that you sign off on the log each week and have your child total the minutes.
Grammar- The focus will be on verbs
Spelling
The Rigby words this week are come, dog, down, me, credit, grand, quest, drizzle, problem and sprinkle.
The focus of the extension list is mono-one.
monochrome, monocle, monolingual, monolith, monologue, monophobia, monopoly, monorail, monosyllabic and monotone
Science
We will continue our solar energy unit this week with a couple more experiments and wrap it up with the creation of our own solar cookers. We are hoping for a SUNNY day Friday without RAIN! :)
Social Studies
We will continue our communities unit. The students will finish creating their communities that they started last week. You'll see some fantastic pictures of a rural community, a suburban community and an urban community very soon. The kids have been very creative with their supplies!
Writing
We will continue to work on revising and editing our Narrative paper on their lost/loose tooth.
The students have a editing sheet that they have to complete before they take their paper to the publishing stage.
