Kudos to the all of the Grizzlies for working on their mulitplication facts. We zipped through four chapters over the past two weeks. The class looked at strategies and concepts of mulitplication. Tuesday we will take our mulitplication test on chapter 10. Then we will begin exploring the concept of division. Please continue memorizing multiplication and division facts.
In Language Arts we finished identifying and writing the four types of sentences. The students wrote summaries and book blurbs for stories they read. We also discovered different strategies to learn new words we find in text. This week we will continue retelling and summarizing stories, after identifying the story's elements. We will examine the ways prefixes and sufixes change the meaning of root words. Wewill also identify anonyms, synonyms and homonyms.
We completed our study of Susan B. Anthony and will begin reading about Paul Revere.
Tuesday is our school Thanksgiving Feast. This is for students only and they are encouraged to dress up a little for this special event.
