Good afternoon Haigh families and happy November. I hope everyone had a great Halloween! My boys sure did and they got pounds of candy to prove it.
Last week we read about the elements of a myth and read a myth about King Midus. Students learned about character traits, motivations, and how the illustrations help us understand a story. We are still working on retelling a story across 5 fingers and will be reading another myth to practice with this week. We also finished almost all of our fable opinion writing blueprint. This week we will work on writing our opinion essay using this blueprint as our guide.
Last week in math we worked on measuring weights with grams and kilograms. We also looked at how to read a spring scale. This week we will look at measuring liquid volume using liters and milliliters. We will also solve mixed word problems involving all four operations using grams, kilograms, liters, and milliliters.
Reminders for the week:
- NO SCHOOL TUESDAY: Election day
