February 22 to 26

Hello!  Just a quick reminder that we have class pictures Tuesday, Feb. 23, as well as individual Spring pictures for anybody that orders them.

Here is a look at our learning goals for the week:

Reading: We will be reading the last chapters of The BFG.  Over the following few days, the students will be recalling and retelling events in order to determine the plot, events, and solutions of the story.  We will then be watching the movie and comparing and contrasting the two different versions.

Word Work: The students will be identifying and using the prefixes mon- and di- to determine the meaning of words.  They will also have practice with similes.

Math: We will be wrapping up our multiplication practice and completing the test on Wednesday.  The students will then be investigating the beginning of fractions.

Science: In our small reading groups, each student will be reading about the ways that humans are part of Earth's story.  They will be using this information for writing.

Have a great week!
Miss Kimpton
