I hope everyone had a restful weekend. This week we start our extended day math program on Thursday. Students who received a permission slip last week need to bring it back to the classroom ASAP so they can be shared with the office before tutoring. Our week is as follows:

Spelling- We are focusing on /on/ and en/ ending chunks https://quizlet.com/_499j0v?x=1jqt&i=xp8qf

Math- We are working on determining factors for composite numbers under 1,000.

Writing- We are doing a historical fiction piece to tie into our social studies. We are writing letters to a friend while we travel on the orphan trains of the 1850-1920s. We will finish our planning and be drafting before the end of the week.

Science-We are still working on the wave types and we will begin to study which mediums/states of matter allow waves to travel through itself.

Social Studies- We have finished looking at the major migration patterns of US history and we will be beginning to look at the impact it has had on populations and metro areas of major cities.

Daily 5- We are focusing on using context clues to determine the meaning of unknown words, determining the theme of a story, and determining the author’s purpose for writing a specific text.

We are also completing Hour of Code this week so look for updates on Class Dojo!

Have a great week.
