Families,
Yet another great week! I hope your child is enjoying their day as much as I am. I have loved getting to know them and watching them get to know and work with each other. Our 5th-grade family is coming together fast!
For our first week in math, we introduced the standard algorithm for multiplication and it did start out a little challenging for some, however by the end of the week, I was watching your children help each other and get so excited about tackling this huge math power standard! We will continue working on this lesson on Monday and assess on Tuesday. For the rest of the week, we will work on dividing multi-digit numbers in lesson 5. Information on this lesson is attached below.
In ELA we discussed short vowels, the genre of narrative nonfiction, focusing on the importance of asking and answering questions when we read. This week we will continue those topics but will include discussing long vowels and reading text about how experiencing nature can change how we feel about it.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I’m looking forward to another great week!
