Reading and Language Arts:
This week we will continue to focus on point of view. We will be reading a
story and discussing our OWN point of view versus the authors (characters)
point of view. We are also beginning to work on Making Inferences during
reading. **Students should be reading at least 20 minutes for homework every
night!
Grammar: The
focus this week will be singular and plural nouns.
Writing: This
week in writing, students will begin to learn how to be a student editor. We
will be starting the writers’ workshop process. This week, students will finish
writing an opinion paper on why they are the Pick of the Patch. Within this
paper, we will be focusing on linking words, adjectives and conventions
(grammar, capitalization, and punctuation).
Science: This
week we will begin talking about the skeletal system. Students will need to
know placement of bones and names of bones. Since it’s the Halloween season,
make sure to quiz your child throughout the week on the bones they know with
the skeleton décor that’s around the area. J
Math: This
week we will be working on place value and rounding. Students will be using the
idea of estimating in order to help with rounding.
