In our new unit in Reading, we will be focusing on nonfiction texts. This week we read Butterflies and Plants That Eat Animals. We also learned about about text features including table of contents.

I encourage you to use these words in your conversations at home!
Math
This week students have taken their test on Unit 5-watch for tests coming home to assist your child with skills they may still be struggling with. We have also been learning about patterns using Unifix cubes.
Writing
This week the students have finished their final copy of their published book. We are spending time reading them to our classmates. Watch for them coming home as well-the kids did a great job!
Science
We have continued our science unit called Changes in Matter in which we are learning about physical and chemical changes. We also got to witness chemical changes in action by erupting our volcanos! So fun!
