September 18-22

Writing:
We're continuing to build on our writer's workshop skills as we work on our personal narratives. We will talk about how to peer conference with a buddy, how to publish a finished story, and how to begin a new story. Published stories will go into our writer's portfolio.

Reading:
Edward the Emu is our book of the week. We are working on making predictions and continuing to practice retelling the story. Ask your child to make predictions before reading at night! Later in the week, we will read the sequel, Edwina the Emu and compare and contrast the two books.

Math:
Hi-ya! We're math ninjas this week as we begin our review of subtraction facts. We will practice taking apart number sentences to figure out the whole, the part, and the missing part. Continue to quiz your child on their addition and subtraction facts!

Science:
We're studying matter this week. We will practice identifying different forms of matter and classify them into groups. We will look at the difference between solids and liquids and how we can transform one into the other. At the end of the week, we will make a creation that contains all 3 forms of matter!

Reminders:
Library check out day- Thursday
Spelling test and life journals due on Fridays.
