Reading: We are exploring story elements in traditional fiction stories and start learning how the setting can influence a story.

Writing: We will begin writing narrative or fiction writing pieces that we will take through the writing process (plan, draft, revise/edit, and publish). 

Language / Grammar: We are reviewing open and closed syllables. We are also reviewing identifying nouns starting with common nouns.

Math: We will continue to explore six-digit numbers.  We practice rounding digits through the hundred thousands place value and look for patters involving addition, multiplication, and subtraction in input output tables and rounding. 

Science: This week we will expand our study of matter to properties of matter including density, magnetism, mass, and state.
