This is already the last week of the grading period! I have connected the spelling list to my home page if you ever need it. I hope everyone is enjoying this great fall weather - we are having a better (less sweaty) time outside every day now.
We are finishing addition with regrouping and will move into time and elapsed time this week. Next will be subtraction with regrouping and then multiplication!! If your child is shaky on their addition or subtraction facts, please work with them. They really need to have these facts in their memory at this point. No more counting on fingers!
We are going to work on the main idea or lesson of fables this week. These move more into lessons or theme of the work than the students have found previously. This is part of the "going deeper" in the Common Core. We are also finishing our personal narratives which is a major writing piece. In science, we continue to work on life science and we are finishing the branches of government in social studies.
