Only three days this week, then track out. In READING, we’ll dive deeper into our new unit – “Describe the connection between a series of historical events, scientific ideas or concepts, or steps in technical procedures in a text” by looking at the technical procedures aspect (e.g. brushing your teeth, baking cookies, building a bird feeder, etc.). Our WRITING focuses on Persuasive Letters: we’ve begun composing using a planning map, and will start to fill those out. In SPELLING, there is no official list, due to our short week – instead, we will practice as part of our reading activities. For MATH, we finish up our Partitioning Shapes unit, and will take the test on Tuesday. SOCIAL STUDIES will involve continued work with Geography and Maps.
This week, we'll continue reading Informational texts in READING and discussing the main point of the article(s), and identifying what reasons/details the author gives to support the main point. LETTERLAND spelling will be Unit 27, focusing primarily on "-f" words and their plurals, like "leaf" and "leaves". The focus of WRITING remains Persuasion and Opinion pieces; we'll talk about, and create, book reviews. For MATH, we'll be studying 3-digit subtraction, and strategies to solve these problems successfully. We continue on with our SOCIAL STUDIES about Geography and Environmental Literacy.
