Math
In lesson 6 we will continue to develop our understanding of multiplication. Along with using our multiplication strategies, we are going to be learning about the properties of multiplying by 3, 4, &6.
Reading:
This week we start Unit 2 in Wonders! Our comprehension strategy is Making, Revising and Confirming Predictions. The expository stories we are reading this week are “Anansi Learns a Lesson,” “Roadrunner’s Dance” and “Deltona is Going Batty.” While reading, we are going to be using details in the text to determine the theme of the story.
Phonics:
Long i: i, ie, igh, y,
Long u: u, u_e, ew
Vocabulary:
cooperation – attempt – awkward – created – furiously – interfere – involved – timid
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!
OCTOBER 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.
- 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.
