This week in Reading our class will be starting an autobiography on Abraham Lincoln.  This book will count towards their AR goal long with, Who was Marco Polo. After reading the autobiography the students will be required to complete a story board with the help of the teacher.

Math Class       

My Math class is learning all about fractions and equal parts. 

Flash cards for multiplication will still be coming home to review nightly.  This review is for a grade.  Please sign the parent sheet each night after reviewing the facts.  Every day the students will be taking a timing on their multiplication facts.  Each time a level is passed the students will be able to add toppings to their ice cream sundays.  At the end of the timing period, we will be celebrating their success by creating ice cream sundays and enjoying them in class. The timing period will end the end of February.

Social Studies

 This week in social studies the class will be learning all about the three branches of government.  They will be studying how our checks and balance system works.  We will be discussing each branch and what their job is.
