This Week’s Assignments
Reading – This week in Reading we will be practicing some short stories with questions
that follow. We will really focus on pulling details from the story to support our
answers.
Writing – We will be working on our Pumpkin Persuasive. Students are writing from
the pumpkins point of view, persuading a child to pick them from the pumpkin patch.
Spelling – Students will be given Unit 10 Spelling words for the week. Grammar
practice will be due Friday. They will be tested over the words on Friday.
Math – We continue our work with place value. We will be talking about place value to
the hundred thousands. We will focus on comparing and ordering numbers as well as
rounding.
Social Studies - We are moving back into Social Studies where we will be focusing on
economics.
