Week 7

In reading this week we are working on determining the theme of a text. The theme is the lesson we can learn from a play, poem, or story. For spelling we are doing Sort 13. On Friday we will be taking our next Language Arts test. If you want to study with your student, study how to make inferences with informational text, complete sentences, and last week and this week's vocabulary words.

In writing we are finishing up of How Tos. We will be finishing our handwritten drafts in class and typing them onto the blog. They are due on Friday. If student's can't get all of this done in class, they need to take it home to finish it by Friday.

In math we are working on multiplying 3 digits by 1 digit numbers as well as talking about area and perimeter. On Thursday we will be taking a retake of our Unit 1 math test. We have gone over the problems on the last test and reviewed how to do them. Hopefully students will be ready to retake this test!

Don't forget that Parent Teacher Conferences are this week! If you still haven't scheduled an appointment, please call the school ASAP to schedule an appointment. I  look forward to meeting with you to discuss your student's progress in school so far this year!
