Dear Students and Parents,
Here is a breakdown of this week's homework and our class concepts:
WRITING: We are focusing on organization and support for what we write. In February, everyone will be writing a research paper about an animal of their choice as well as an opinion paper. In March, everyone will be writing a research paper about a county in Utah.
SPELLING: Our study of vocabulary continues with the prefixes co, com, meaning together, joint, with.
MATH: We will review solving fair share and compare type-division problems, understanding what we do with the remainder. The students will learn strategies to divide three and four digit dividends by a single digit divisor using number sense and place value, and we'll check our work with another strategy or the inverse operations.
Reading: 120 minutes; it would be a good idea to finish reading those books-either an historical fiction or fantasy. BOOK REPORT DUE February 26!
Spelling: 3 Spelling Tic Tac Toe activities, test Friday
Spelling Words: Focus on prefix co, com
copy, copying, copied, combine, combining, compare, comparing, coexist, cohesive, community, committee, coincidence, communicate, communication, communicating (bonus: compatible)
Math: My Math Pages 339-340, 345-346, 371-372.
