Reading: In reading this week we are are thinking about our keywords in our books and practicing talking about them.  Students are using post-its to mark up their books as reminders to talk about them with their partners.  We will also use drama to help bring our books to life.  At the end of the week we will celebrate by reading to another class.  

Writing: In writing this week we are getting ready to publish. We are picking out some of our favorite pieces and revising by adding more or taking away. We are also using our revision checklist that we created as a class. We are also going to edit to make our writing easy to read and share with others! 

Word Study: In word study this week we are ending Unit 4 and starting up Unit 5, which will have a new packet that will be sent home later this week.

Math: This week in math we are practicing strategies to help with our math facts. The hope is that these strategies will help students become fluent. We will also be practicing more story problems. 

Content:  We are beginning our new unit on the Sun and the Moon.  This week we will learn about the day and night sky.  We will learn about the atmosphere and space.  

Let me know if you have any questions.
