In math we have been working on solving number sentences, determining if number sentences are true or false and order of operations. Ask your child what is Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. Tomorrow we will be starting decimals. Things to do at home include reading decimals. For example: 5.7 would be read five and seven tenths, .04 would be read four hundredths. Students also need to know which number is larger or smaller. .6 or .06 for example.
In reading we have been studying the sequence of events to help determine text importance. Word study patterns students have been working on include long and short u patterns. Words like tooth, chewy, and pumpkin all have the different patterns we have been studying.
In writing we are still working on our personal narratives. We are getting ready to edit them with partners. We are excited to share them with our parents and friends.
