We have a very busy week.  Below you will find information about what to study and what we are learning.

Math…We are working on arrays and multiplication.  Students need to start studying their multiplication facts for 0’s and 1’s.  They have their normal math homework for this week.

Reading…We are starting to look at text features in informational text.  Please be sure they read for 30 minutes each night and don’t forget to sign their planners on Thursday evening.

Spelling…We are looking at r-controlled vowels

Language…We are looking at the prefixes auto and anti

Science…We are looking at habitats and adaptations

Word Wall words…In their planners on the words of the week section, the students will begin writing 5 words.  These will be word wall words that they need to be able to recognize and read.  Once they are placed on the wall, the boys will be responsible for spelling these words correctly in any written work.

I sent home information regarding our Charleston field trip today.  Please be sure to let me know if your child will need a school lunch or will be bringing lunch from home.  I will need this information no later than Wednesday.  If the bring their lunch from home, please place it in a disposal bag…no thermoses, ice packs, lunch boxes, etc…  Also the electronic permission slip does not need to be returned until the morning of the trip.  I will send a gallon sized Ziploc bag home on Thursday for their items to go inside.
