Reading:
In Unit 3 Week 4, we will be talking about what ideas we can get from nature.  Our comprehension skill for the week  is main idea and key details and our strategy is summarizing.  We will be reading two expository texts,  “Bats Did it First” and “Big Ideas from Nature”.

Phonics:
prefixes and final -e syllables

Vocabulary:
-imitate    -effective     -example   -identical    -material    -model   -observed     -similar
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!


JANUARY 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.
