Good afternoon Haigh families. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with family. I have really enjoyed this break to take time to enjoy the holiday cheer with my family.
Check out the FUN we had last week creating MAGNET MAZES!
This week in reading we will be focusing on determining the main idea of a text by thinking about the topic and figuring out what the text is trying to tell us about a topic. In writing we will compose a informational writing for our district writing prompt. Later in the week we will begin to look at the difference between fact and opinion and learn about fact based opinion writing.
In math we are moving on to unit 3 which is addition and subtraction strategies. We will take our pre-test tomorrow and begin our new unit on Tuesday. We will still be taking our daily one minute multiplication fact quiz, so please keep studying!
In social studies we will be looking at the Native Americans in Michigan.
