Math:
We will start lessons 9 and 10 this week. First, we will use place value to multiply and then we will move onto understanding the meaning of division.
Reading:
In Unit 2 Week 4, our comprehension strategy is rereading to help us understand a text better. The expository texts we are reading this week are “Whooping Cranes in Danger,” and “Kids to the Rescue!”. While reading, we are going to be using details in the text to determine the author’s point of view.
Phonics:
Three Letter Blends: -spr, -str, -squ, -thr
Vocabulary:
-success -caretakers -population -recognized -relatives -resources -survived -threatened
In class, we learn about these vocabulary words in connection to ourselves. If you notice your child using any of these words in context, this would be a great opportunity to celebrate their efforts!
NOVEMBER POEMS
Each month students are required to memorize at least one poem. Below are the month’s poems. We only read through these in class once, so they need to be practiced at home. Students can pass off poems on Fridays whenever they are ready to recite them.
OPTIONAL – yet HIGHLY encouraged by Mrs. Alexander – REVIEW
- Read at least 20 minutes per day. Making sure that your child does his/her reading daily is the single most helpful thing you can do to support educational success.
- REFLEX- at least 3 green lights per week!
- There is a link to Reflex on the right hand side of the blog. The username is: alexander3 and students will use their own network password to log in.
