April 30th-May 4th

Hello parents!

I hope everyone is doing well. I can't believe we are coming to the last month of school. We have accomplished so much but still have more to do before May 24th.

Reading we our on Unit 10 Week 2. The Essential Question this week is: In what ways are things alike? How are they different? Reading groups are working on fluency and comprehension. Some groups are working on being fluent in all the sounds in a word as they begin reading. 
Sight words: Please take a look on your child's ipad. they took a picture of all the sight words we have learned so far.  However, these sight words are not on their ipads. Good, come, and who. Have your child practice these sight words each night. They can write them on index cards or in salt.

Math we are finishing unit 4 and taking an end of the unit test this week. We will start unit 5 this week as well.  Your child has been coming home with rubric the past couple of weeks. This is to show you weekly how they are doing on certain math concepts. For example, Addition and subtraction and story problems. 

Writing: We have been doing Opinion Writing and everyone is writing so well. They are checking their work. I am so proud of them.  They write daily in their journals I am excited for you to see their growth.
