Week of October 24

This week in cottage 34....
Reading
   We will be reading different fiction stories and learning about questioning before, during, and after reading.  Students will also focus on 3 different kinds of questions found in texts.  If you see a piece of notebook paper that comes home with lots of numbered boxes and writing on it, this is an answer document students use during a computerized test/quiz.  Students are asked to title their paper with what assessment they are taking and a grade will appear on it.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Math
     This week we are working with multiplication word problems, exploring multiples of 100 chart, and using tables and charts to solve multiplication problem.  There will be an assessment on the computer covering number lines, arrays, and other multiplication problems.

Science
   We started out unit about matter on Monday.  Students are asked to look around their house for different kinds of matter.  Please have students review their notes each night.  There will be a hardback science book coming home this week for students to read.  The pages they are to read are listed below on a worksheet.  Make sure they return both to school.  This reading can count for their 20 minutes.
