Week of October 13th-17th

This week we will be reading the non-fiction story Penguin Chick.   We will be identifying the main idea and supporting details to improve comprehension.  We will be learning how to use graphic organizers to help organize our thoughts and ideas about the story.  The spelling test, grammar test and reading selection test will all be on Thursday the 16th, as there is no school on Friday.  Other areas of focus are listed below:

Grammar-Common and Proper Nouns

Spelling- Syllable patterns- dividing words in to syllables can help with decoding.  If the syllable ends with a consonant as in lemon the vowel is short.  If the syllable ends with a vowel then the vowel will have the long sound as in pilot.

Writing-Summarizing

Math-Estimating
