OUR WEEK AT A GLANCE

Math: This week, students will begin working in their Module 3 books. Throughout this module, students will apply multiplication and division concepts, representations, and strategies from module 1. They use the commutative, distributive, and associative properties to help them multiply and divide. Students advance their representations to more abstract arrays and tape diagrams and begin to use a letter to represent an unknown quantity. Students will be coming home today with their Module 2 Apply and Learn books. Please keep these Module 2 books at home. The Module 2 books do not need to return to class.

Reader's Workshop: Students will be learning about reindeer this week! They will read a book about reindeer and then write about what they learned using text evidence. They will focus on reindeer habitats, diet and adaptations. 

Writer's Workshop: This week we will write a Winter acrostic poem.

Science: We will continue learning about forces. 

Social Studies: We will continue with Week 15 in our Studies Weekly curriculum. Lesson 15 will teach students about the Chumash People of the pacific coast region. 

P.E.: Please dress appropriately on Monday and Thursday for P.E/dance class every week.
