Week 17

This week in reading we are making connections and comparisons between books and the movie versions of the books. We will be reading and watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Twas the Night Before Christmas. We will be filling out a graphic organizer comparing and contrasting the book versions and the movie versions. For spelling this week and next, we will be doing Christmas words. This week we are doing Christmas List #1. Spelling homework will be the same, just the list is Christmas words.

In writing we are finishing our Persuasive Letters to Mr. Campbell. We will finish editing and revising, then we will rewrite, type on the blog, and share our letters with the class. We will vote on one letter to be read to Mr. Campbell to persuade him to let us have a pajama day. These letters are due on Friday.

In math we are finishing our Fractions Unit this week. We will be taking this test on Thursday. I will also be letting students retake the Unit 4 test on Place Value on Thursday.

In social studies we are taking our quizzes to prepare for our County Test next week. Please help your student remember to study their counties and county seats! Pictures of all answer keys as well as links to study are up on my blog. We are also working our our County Book's to review things we have learned about this year so far.
