What an awesome Halloween week we've had! A huge thank you to our room moms, and other parents, who put on such a fun Halloween party for the class! The class had so much fun today, and I wish you all super fun and safe Halloween weekend!
In Reading this week, we are reading realistic fiction texts, with an emphasis on culture and trying new things. We read a story called "They Don't Mean It," where we saw that communication among different cultural groups can be misinterpreted. The reading assessment next week will be on this selection. We are also making great progress on our November book reports, and some are already hanging up in the classroom. Please come check them out. This month, students turned a book into a movie poster! In Math, we are continuing to make progress with division. Division is really tricky, and we are learning multiple methods we can use to divide larger numbers. We have been working on the algorithmic method of long division, which can be long and tedious. Lots of practice makes this much easier, so we've been practicing a lot this week! Ask your student what their preferred method is! In Science, we started a new unit on ecosystems and food webs. It's a great unit that shows how we are all tied together! Next week, in Religion, we will begin our Keep Christ in Christmas posters.
