Math: We will use arrays to write and solve repeated addition math problems. This will also help us identify equal groups. We will finish Unit 3 this week and spend two days reviewing topics from the Unit (number patterns, skip counting, even and odd numbers, and arrays).

Science: Science will start the week of October 4th

Language Arts: During Writing, we will continue to plan our personal narrative, as we draft a beginning, middle, and end to our stories. We will add in details and practice using good word choice.

Reading: This week, we will work on encoding and decoding high frequency words, along with -ng and -le ending words. We will review the differences between nouns (people, places, and things) and verbs (action words). We will also work on our fluency each day in our decodable reader and in our small group reading groups.

Social Studies: We just wrapped up Chapter 1 from our My World curriculum. We will spend the first part of our week reviewing the topics from the chapter. Then, we will take the test on Thursday. Students can use their notes packets (and review sheets) from class to assist on this test. We will also send home a copy of the review sheet with answers in the event that you would like to help your child prepare extra at home.

Religion: This week we will return to our Finding God textbooks to start a new session on making good decisions and being guided by the Holy Spirit. We will also explain how we can be shining lights for others.
