I hope everyone had a nice three day Veteran's Holiday weekend. Maybe you had a chance to see a parade or go to the air show. We had a very nice assembly last week in honor of all the veterans in the country. We will be working hard this week to cover everything we need to in order to prepare for our next upcoming days off for Thanksgiving. You should still see homework coming home every night Monday thru Thursday and student's Friday folders with important grades and comments on what students have been doing through the week. And don't forget to be working on those Science Fair projects :)
Math
We will continue to work in Module 3 this week continuing and concluding our study of division. Students have learned several strategies for solving division problems. We will be working and focusing on the place value chart, area model and standard algorithm so students have the fluency they need in order to be successful to meet the standard. Continue to study multiplication facts for math fluency also.
Science
We are moving on to a new focus in Science which is Earth and Space. Students will learn about the moon, eclipses and what causes the seasons in this chapter. We will be taking a field trip to MOSH on Monday, November 21st to learn more about space.
Students should be coming to the final stages of their science fair project. They still have one more week to work on it. The project is due Nov. 21-22 before Thanksgiving.
