Welcome back! I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving with their friends and family. We are getting right back into the swing of things. We have many things we need to get finished before our next break. I am sending home a permission slip today for a field trip, next Friday. We are going to the DIA and I was able to make it work where we are getting the trip and the bus for free! The only thing each student is responsible for is bringing a disposable bagged lunch or money to buy food at the cafe. Our class will be going with the 3\/4 split. We need 5 parents total between both classes. You can fill out chaperone part on the permission slip, if you are interested.<\/p>\n
Our week:<\/p>\n
Spelling- We are looking at ‘ou’ words. We are not doing the same spelling homework, as usual, this week. We are trying something new. The students will be bringing home a packet of 4 spelling tasks they have to complete before Friday. Our words are :noun, loud, mound, shout, round, adapt, system, ecosystem, mammal, reptile<\/p>\n
Math- We are starting unit 4 which will focus on multiplication and division. Tests from unit 3 will come home as soon as all of the test make-ups have been taken.<\/p>\n
science- We are still working on types of light. The students will be making “stained glass” out of different materials that are opaque, transparent or translucent.<\/p>\n
Social Studies- We are starting to look at the Native Americans that lived in Michigan before it was settled in Waterford.<\/p>\n
Reading- We are focusing on prefixes and suffixes. Students will be looking at how to break up words they do not know and use prefixes or suffixes to determine the\u00a0meaning.<\/p>\n
Writing-We are working on an informational piece about an animal of their choosing. Students will continue the writing process on these pieces and will publish next week.<\/p>\n
Have a great week!<\/p>\n
