Tomorrow’s homework will be a worksheet where students have to add and subtract two digit numbers.
NWEA has been moved to Wednesday. We will take our test in the afternoon, so please make sure your child is well-rested that day. Attendance is very important, as making the test up is difficult this time of year. Have a great day!!
Tomorrow’s homework is a worksheet where students have to draw tens and ones in order to add them together. They must also match the word to its meaning using the prefix: dis (which means “to not”)
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!
Here are our plans for the week:

7. hold
8. warm
9. full
10. done
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!!
Both tonight’s and Wednesday’s homework will be a review on Fractions. Students will most likely take the NWEA math test on Friday morning. Please make sure that your child comes to school well rested. All students should have a healthy breakfast. Please talk to your child about taking his/her time and doing his/her best on this test. Thank you for your continued support!
Reminder: Field day is today! Have students dress appropriately and let’s all hope for dry weather!!
Tonight’s homework is a page where students have to add 10 and 100 to numbers.

Reading and Writing:This week, we will continue to use nonfiction text features such as bold words, photos, glossaries, headings, captions, labels, indexes, table of contents etc. to look for information in texts. We are learning to read a text and identify the author’s main point. We have been reading many informational books and articles, and they are getting really good at highlighting key details (important information). I strongly encourage you to read informational books with your children, as you will be very impressed with their skills.
Math: We are continuing to add and subtract two digit numbers using different strategies such as breaking apart numbers, looking for patterns on the number grid, drawing base ten blocks, and adding with regrouping. We are learning how to use patterns to add and subtract ten mentally to two digit numbers, and can record missing numbers in a sequence.
Social Studies: We are learning about schools, transportation, clothing, jobs, and family life in the past and present. Students are becoming proficient in being able to compare and contrast events, information, and texts on a double bubble map. Also, we continue to learn about the days of the week, months of the year, and important dates on a calendar. Please take time at home to look at calendars and talk about their features.
Happy Mother’s Day to All! I hope your weekends are extra special 🙂

Reading and Writing: We are still reading informational texts and identifying the author’s main point. We are learning to highlight as well. For example, we often highlight the reasons that the author provides to support his main point. Additionally, we are looking at different texts on the same topic and identifying similarities and differences between the texts. WE are working on publishing our opinion papers and will begin writing an opinion paper on a different topic.
Math: Add within 100, including adding a two-digit number and a one-digit number, and adding a two-digit number and a multiple of 10, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to the written method and explain the reasoning used. Understand that in adding two-digit numbers, one adds tens and tens, ones and ones; and sometimes it is necessary to compose a ten.
Social Studies : We are learning about days of the week, months of the year, and how to read a calendar. I will attach a powerpoint that you can use for practice:-)
Behavior: Although we still have many school days left in our year together, many students are beginning to exhibit silly, off-task and unkind behavior. I have talked with them several times, and I think it would be helpful if you reviewed some of our expectations with your child at home. We have many fun activities planned for the end of the year, and I really want ALL children to participate. Let’s work together to ensure that the rest of our year is positive, productive, and happy. Thank you again for your continued support.
Tonight’s homework is more practice with the number grid. I strongly encourage you to have your children watch these videos. They really help reinforce what we are doing in class.
