Powers of 10

This week in math, students are learning the Powers of 10. They have an anchor in their math journals. As you move a digit to the left, it is multiplied by 10. If the digit is moved to the right, it's divided by 10. Please have them review their anchor nightly to build comprehension of this concept.

We continue to read and identify the elements of plot structure.
Tuesday's homework is to read the passage "Good Friends" and label the 5 elements. Then complete the questions highlighting the text evidence. A primary test will be on Friday. Students will be matching vocabulary and definitions, reading short passages, and answering multiple choice questions that identify the 5 elements.

Spelling this week. Students should be studying the definitions of all social studies content vocabulary.Also, study spelling of all 15 words. We had many students NOT complete Monday's task beginning with "value". By Tuesday night, all definitions for content words should be completed. they were given extra time in-class to complete this.

Please help you child to be prepared for class by completing their assignments. Initial their agenda. If you see a" ? "in a subject area, this tells you that he/she did NOT write their assignment.

Routine and organization are key to success.
