Week of January 14th

Hello Families! Hope your Christmas Break was a great one! Sorry I forgot to update the blog last week......completely slipped my mind! Here is your update for this week though:

Reading - The genre for this month is mystery. The children began their mystery novels last week. Their novels and related work are due January 18th. The skill of the week is fact and opinion.

Math - We will finish up division Monday with estimating quotients and then begin geometry. We will continuously review previously learned concepts and take cumulative review tests to check for learning and retention. Please look for these papers to come home with your child and go over them.

Spelling - List 21, Enriched list 21.5

English - Figurative Language, Creative Writing

Social Studies - We began the Southeast region last week. This week, we will look at the Underground Railroad, Harriet Tubman, and the Civil War.

Hopefully everyone is reading at home! The girls are winning the Super Bowl Challenge so far!!
