Homework:
-Please help your child to remember to check binders every day!
-More important than ever: Practice your math skills at home every day- either Reflex Math, I.M., a math game, or practicing triangle cards twice a day are all good options!
-Book Checks are happening- keep reading every day! I'm so proud of all the readers we have in our class!!!
Remember to learn from authors, and notice capitalization, punctuation, and paragraphs in your book. Then use your newfound expertise in your next essay or journal entry!
Math:
We are busy learning long division with remainders, and have discovered that long division is fun! Remembering those multiplication facts to help us along is vital!
We are practicing the placement of the "scientific hookie thing", and getting comfortable with the process of long division.
Please remember to ask your child to review their daily math page with you. An outstanding way to cement what they have learned is to explain the lesson to another person.
Your child knows to keep those papers until the topic test, as they contain information to help in clearing up any confusions or misconceptions. You will also see exactly what we are up to in math.
Math Test for topic 10: Thursday, 1/30
Language Arts:
We are continuing with concepts surrounding writing a good informative essay. Our current essay is on the topic of informing the reader about the three routes that 49ers used to take to the Gold Rush.
Our historical focus is the Gold Rush, and we hae begun reading our next class novel, By the Great Horn Spoon!
