Math We are currently working on fractions and the students are rotating classes to get the best instruction according to their needs. In this unit students will learn how to represent fractions (ie., in a picture, number line, standard form), finding equivalent fractions, and comparing fractions. Depending on how many more snow days we accumulate... we are planning our end of the unit test the last week in February. We will keep you posted.
Reading We started a unit on Biographies this week. Your child will be learning about these nonfiction texts by using history and some of their life-changing events in the next few weeks. Our first focus is Martin Luther King Jr.
Writing Our current unit is on Persuasive and Opinion Writing. Next week your child will have the opportunity in class to write an opinion letter to someone or some place that it is important to them. This could be an actor, a singer, a restaurant, a place of business, etc. We will address these letters and send them on their way, hoping for a response and maybe even a surprise from the person or company!
WE NEED YOUR HELP! Since we will be mailing these letters, we are asking you to help us with postage. Please send in a stamp for your child, or 50 cents to help with the cost.
