Dear Parents,
I hope you all enjoyed this beautiful Thanksgiving Break, and was able to spend your days relaxing with family and friends. I am looking forward to a fun-filled week of learning!
Math: We will be having a math test this week.
- Read and write multi-digit whole numbers using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form. Compare two multi-digit numbers based on meanings of the digits in each place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
- Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
- Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison, e.g., interpret 35 = 5 × 7 as a statement that 35 is 5 times as many as 7 and 7 times as many as 5. Represent verbal statements of multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations.
- Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole number is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.
Reading: We will analyze point of view using drama and evaluate how the author’s point of view influences the text.
- CCSS:RL 4.6 Compare and contrast the point of view from which different dramas are narrated, including the difference between first and third person narrations.
- RL 4.4 Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in the drama.
- L 4.1e Form and use prepositional phrases.
Science: We will continue on changes of matter. We will learn about the physical and chemical changes.
- Develop an understanding that all matter has observable attributes with physical and chemical properties that are described, measured, and compared. Understand that states of matter exist as solid, liquid, or gas; and have physical and chemical properties. Understand all matter is composed of combinations of elements, which are organized by common attributes and characteristics on the Periodic Table. Understand that substances can be classified as mixtures or compounds and according to their physical and chemical properties.
Social Studies:
