Week of November 28

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday.  This is what we will be learning this week.

Reading
We will be learning about non-fiction text features.  A new list of vocabulary words will be given on Monday and students will test on them the following Friday.

Math
Students will be working on 2, 3, and 4 digit addition.  Continue to work on multiplication facts because we will be working with multiplication all year long.

Science
We started learning about behavioral and physical adaptations before Thanksgiving break.  We will continue learning about all the ways animals protect themselves from predators.  This unit of study is rich with vocabulary.  Students started to create vocabulary cards last week and had to finish them over break.  Remind them I will be checking on them Monday morning.  Make sure your child studies their science notes nightly and learn the vocabulary because there is a test on November 30th.

**If any families have any blue, white, or silver ornaments they are not going to use, send them in with your child.  There is going to be a kindness tree going up in the school lobby.
