Reading and writing: We will continue to read fiction books. Students should be able to use the illustrations and words to describe the characters, setting, and major events in the story. Additionally, we will be looking for words and phrases that the author uses to appeal to the senses (touch, smell, taste, hearing, sight) and represent feelings. We will also begin working on opinion writing, where students state their opinion about a topic and then give reasons to support their opinion. They will end their papers with a closing sentence, where they will restate their opinion in a different way.

Math: We are continuing to learn about shapes and fractions. I will continue to send extra activities home that will help your child with the skills that they had difficulty with on NWEA.

Social Studies: We are going to learn about human and physical characteristics. I created a power point and sent it in my previous post. Human characteristics are things in the environment that people have created. Physical characteristics are things that naturally exist in the environments such as hills, mountains, oceans etc.

I have assigned lessons to each child on Moby Max depending on areas that need improvement. Please have your child work on these at home. They must click on assignments in order to find these. Thank you for your support!

Have a great weekend!
