For the week of: Sep. 19-23

Dear Family Member:

This week our class will be focusing on how technology leads to creative ideas. We will be discussing how scientific investigation and invention can lead to new tools, technologies, and products.

Here are some activities that you can do with your child to help reinforce the skills we’ll be practicing.

Word Workout

• Words to Know: Greek roots Your child will write a paragraph, using all the vocabulary words, about a girl who invents something.

• Spelling/Phonics: r-controlled vowels You will read two spelling words, and your child will indicate whether the words have the same vowel sound. Then you will work together to identify the letters that stand for each vowel sound.

Comprehension: sequence

In this activity, you will help your child to remember events from the life of someone they know. Your child will then arrange these events into a biographical paragraph.
