Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Here is what's happenings this week:

Writing: The students will choose their essay idea. They will form a thesis statement and begin developing pieces of evidence.

Word Study: The students will use their words to complete different spelling activities. Their tests will be October 18.

Science: We will spend this week discussing plant adaptations. They will explain how a plant's adaptations help it survive. We will also look at different types of seeds and how they are able to spread.

Math: We will continue chapter 4 this week. The students will learn how to use the traditional method to multiply with regrouping. We will also work on using multiplication in word problems. Their test will be Wednesday, October 18.

Reading: We will continue our non-fiction unit. The students will spend this week learning the different text structures. Text structure is how an author organizes their information. For your child's nightly reading, they can continue reading fiction at home or spend some time reading non-fiction. It is up to them!
