Music

Today at school we wrote in cursive

 Today in writing, we did our first page of cursive! We traced under curve and down curve. Some people were better than others but I'm sure they'll get use to it. It was REALLY fun. There was a page were you had to write cursive letters that you knew, and had to try and read cursive.

This Week We Will Have...

Math: We have been learning our division facts as well as different strategies! The strategies are: equal groups, repeated subtraction, equal groups with remainders, and repeated subtraction with remainders. Students know to represent remainders with a capital R and then the number. We will have our test this Friday, December 10th. Next week we will be talking about algebra and order of operations. This is one of my favorite things in math to teach EVER!! :)

Reading: We have been talking about compare and contrast. Make sure to try to use our strategy at home when you do your reading HW!

Science: We are waiting for our plants to grow! We planted them last Wednesday. We created hypotheses today about what our plants are going to look like when they "grow". How is your plant going to show growth? What are you going to see? 

Writing: We have been visiting poetry and beginning to collect pieces for our anthology. Students will begin our district writing prompt before we leave for break. There is nothing that you need to worry about at home.
