Dear Families,

I hoped everyone enjoyed their holidays!

This Tuesday, September 20^th, we will begin our Math MAP Test. Please make sure your child gets a good night’s rest as well as a healthy breakfast for them to be ready to take the test. 

Language Arts

Working With Words:  Students will be reviewing the word wall words we have studied up to this point through various activities and chants. The spelling challenge will be on Friday.   

New Vocabulary: will, up, other, about, out

Reading: We will be reading materials regarding different landforms and bodies of water. This will be carried over to Social Studies as well. 

Vocabulary: Mountain, Hill, Valley, Plain, Plateau, River, Lake, Pond, Ocean, Island 

Writing: Your child will continue writing the opinion piece regarding the activities he/she has done with his/her family. They will introduce the topic they are writing about, supply reasons for the opinion and provide some sense of closure.

Math: For this week’s math, we will continue working with subtraction. We will also be introducing bar models. There are IXL skills I have added to the bottom of the blog. Your child is NOT required to do them. However, it’s a wonderful way to get some extra practice.

Social Studies: We will be learning about landforms and bodies of water.
