September 14

Religion:    Next week our focus will be on the Bible. The students will see how it is organized as well as how to find the different sections. By the end of the week they will start look up verses in the Bible.
Writing: This week we focused on Proper Nouns with our Mentor Sentence. Ask your child to tell you the difference between a common noun and a proper noun.
Next week we will continue to gather ideas for writing. We will learn a little about poetry and we will practice writing from the perspective of an object.
Math:   The students will finish up Unit One next week. There will be a review on Wednesday and a test over the unit on Thursday. On Friday we will do a STEAM activity!
Spelling: Week Three - Long A (ai, ay, eigh) / Hard and Soft Sounds of G and C
The spelling section of the website contains all of the weekly lists and the choice words in case your child misplaces their words.  You can also find a copy of LSCW if you need it.
Science/SS: Students will have a second day of review for our Unit 1 Communities test. Test will be on Thursday, September 20!
Comprehension: The students have learned about many of the different types of genres. Next week we will finish learning about the two main types of nonfiction. After our lessons they should be able to tell you the difference between an informational text and a biography.
