Sneak Peek of our Academic Week
math: This week we begin unit 6, learning all about line segments, rays, and lines! Then, we will work with parallel and intersecting lines.
reading: We continue on with our Character Study unit as we begin our book clubs! In our book clubs, we will work together to determine the important ideas about the characters in our books, focusing on the problems in the story and finding out how our characters resolve those problems.
writing: We continue on with opinion writing. This week we will begin thinking about our second opinion speech–petitions.
word work: Spelling words can be found in your child’s planner and on Kids A-Z. Spelling tests are scheduled for this Friday.

Have a great week!
