This week in Reading our class will continue the novel, Abracadabra!   We will be working heavily on dictionary skills during this novel.    We will also continuing working on comprehension and writing skills.  The class will be presenting a magic show for our parents on October 25th at 2:15 in the little gym.  A note was sent home last week explaining our project and the expectations.  Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Math Class       

My Math class is learning all about number values and properties.  Here are some things we will be focusing on:

ü Comparing and Ordering Numbers into the 10,000

ü Least, Greatest, and Equal to

ü Using correct symbols ( <, = , > )

ü Commutative property

ü Associative property

ü Identity property

 

Science

 The science classes have switched teachers.  I will now be teaching Earth science to Mrs. Staffileno’s homeroom.  Mr. Leintz will be teaching physical science to my homeroom and Mrs. Staffileno will be teaching Life science to Mr. Leintz’s homeroom.

I will be teaching your child about Earth Science for the next six weeks.  Last week we learned about the layers of Earth, rocks, weathering, and erosion.   This week we will be constructing volcanoes to explode later in the week.  This is a fun activity for the students.
