Weekly Update

Writing/Spelling

I can't wait to have the students' famous Missourian pages printed!  They worked so hard.  We will have our very own copy of the published book in our classroom library!  After spring break, we will move on to our literary essay unit.  Spelling will also resume after spring break.

Reading

We finished our class read aloud "Rump," so we will start our new read aloud after spring break.  Analyzing our main character Rump (or Rumpelstiltskin) will help us with our next reading and writing unit on literary essays and digging deeper into the text in book clubs.  As a reminder, book clubs meet every Wednesday and Friday.  

Math

This week we converted units of weight and time. After spring break, we will continue in Chapter 11 by making line plots and solving measurement word problems.  Our Chapter 11 Test will be Friday, April 1st.  

Social Studies 

When we return from break, we will resume with our government chapter in Social Studies (Chapter 9).
