This week in math we learned many different mental math strategies. I told the students they should use the strategy that makes the most sense to them because all students learn differently. At the end of the week, we began to learn to add to the nearest tens and hundreds. Our math assessment will be next Wednesday.
For the month of October we will be focusing on the genre of realistic fiction. During this genre study the students will be reading independently, in small groups, and at the end of October we will be having book clubs. Throughout the month I will have book talks on some of my favorite realistic fiction books and we will work on different reading strategies.
In science, we learned about photosynthesis. Ask your child: "What does the plant need to make food?"
We will begin using Study Island as homework this week. The class went to the computer lab to take the math pre-test last Friday. This week we will take the ELA pre-test.
