Happy Weekend, Families!

We did great on our NWEA math test! Keep up the great work! We will take the reading NWEA test on Thursday morning 🙂 I am so proud of all of them!

Social Studies: We will learn about and identify reasons that we celebrate Independence Day (July 4). Additionally, we will learn about President’s Day.

Reading and Writing: We are back to reading literature! Students will learn how to retell the important details from stories. This is something that they should know how to do orally and in writing. You can have your child practice this by asking him/her to retell stories in his/her bookbag. They can do this by telling you orally or by making a Beginning, Middle, End chart on paper and writing the important part of the beginning, middle, and end of a story. They should use the terms: First, Next, and Finally.

Math: We are still learning about patterns on the number grid. Students should use these patterns to add and subtract ten from a two digit number. Additionally, they should be able to tell how many groups of ten are represented in a number. We are learning about place value, so students should be able to tell what number is in the hundreds, tens and ones place. Finally, we are still learning how to represent fractions. Students must understand that a fraction is EQUAL parts of a whole. A shape is only divided into halves, thirds, fourths, etc. if the parts are equal.

Have a fantastic weekend!!
