Week 19

This month is just flying by! This upcoming week will feature many new units of study. We are just started Fractions this week in math. The Unit 5 math test will be returned to your child early next week. Unit 5 was a very short unit and most of the work with factors and multiples will be repeated as we work on equivalent fractions in this upcoming unit.
Next week, we are starting Fantasy Book Clubs in reading and Comparative Literary Essays in Writing. Our Social Studies unit on Native Americans will culminate with the children writing an All About Book using research they have done on the Iroquois.

Here's what else that will happen next week:

• Schools are closed for Martin Luther King Day on Monday.
• We will go to the Armory on Tuesday. Please have your child wear sneakers.
• I will be out on Wednesday at a Math Workshop. There will be a substitute teacher who will go over reviews of the work with factors and multiples will be repeated as we work on equivalent fractions in this upcoming unit. 

Have  a wonderful weekend!
