In Grammar, we will be learning that a singular possessive noun shows ownership by one person or thing and that a plural possessive noun shows ownership by more than one person or thing. In Science class, we are quickly approaching our first deadline, committing to the Invention Proposal. If you look at the copy of the Invention Parent Packet that your child brought home, you'll notice that the proposal is due on December 17th. The Invention Proposal form will be sent home on Wednesday, December 12th. Be watching for it!
- Reading: The main skills we will be working on in reading this week include fact and opinion, making predictions and using common suffixes to determine the meanings of words. A new reading log went home today and will be due next Friday. Please be sure you are also checking your student's AR progress weekly on their tracking sheet in their agendas. If you have any questions about your child's goal, book choices or reading level please let me know.
- Math: We will be finishing Unit 4 this week. Monday, we will identify attributes, names and perimeter of regular and irregular polygons. Tuesday, we will work on transformations. Students will rotate, translate and reflect figures. Students will be given a homework assignment with time to work on it during class on Monday and Tuesday. We will spend Wednesday and Thursday reviewing and take the test on Friday.
