Here is what we will be working on in class this week:
Spelling-- A new list will be coming home tonight.  The words on the list this week will come from our "Life Cycles and Traits" vocabulary list.

Science--  Students will be learning about plant and animal traits and how they each follow a life cycle.

Reading-- We will start novel studies later this week.  Kids will be reading within a group and assigned daily activities to complete while reading. 

Math-- Our focus in math this week and next will be perimeter and area. Students will be practicing how to find the distance around a shape and the amount of space it takes up.  We will be completing various activities to help us explore more about those two topics. 

Have a wonderful week!!
