Dear Parents,

I hope everyone had a wonderful week off from school. The weather was so beautiful!
We will now have a great week at school!

Spelling: disappear, improper, miscommunication, antisocial, import, export, invisible, distrust, mislead, disagree, divide, division, focus, subtract, thrown, throan, aloud, allowed, past, passed.

Reading and Writing: We are studying narrative writing as well as narrative reading.
We will be using strategies we’ve learned to review and practice test items similar to what will appear on the MSTEP test that all 3rd, 4th and 5th graders will take coming up soon in March or April.
Thank you for logging minutes read on the planner and returning the planner to school each day!

Math: We continue to study long division. Please practice at home as much as you can. This concept is very hard for students. We have been taking 3 digit numbers and dividing them by one number. There was a video on youtube that had a little saying to remember the steps in dividing. Divide, multiply, subtract, bring down.
Kahn Academy: I am hoping by now that everyone has logged in to Kahn Academy. Please let me know if you were unable to do so. I hope students have practiced as well. The really nice thing about Kahn Academy is it has the students work on things that they struggled with on the NWEA. It reviews concepts for them, lets them watch videos of things they may have been confused on, and lets them practice.

Science: We are studying the EArth, sun, and moon:)

Social Studies: We continue to learn about our government and the roles of each branch of government: executive, judicial, and legislative:)

Have a wonderful week!

Sincerely,
Gina Parana
