I'm not sure where the time has gone, but next week is Thanksgiving! Wow!
We are really looking forward to having Grandpals come visit the classroom on Friday!
Reading: The children are really enjoying Riding Freedom. It is a wonderful historical fiction story and the children are having great conversations about the book. Ask your child to tell you more about the main character, Charlotte. We will have a vocabulary quiz on Thursday. The students have a link to the StudyStack with the vocabulary words on it through Schoology.
Grammar: On Friday, the students will have a test on subject and predicate. They will need to identify subjects and predicates, simple subjects and simple predicates, run-on sentences and fragments. They will also need to be able to combine sentences to make compound subjects and predicates. Students will also need to be able to "fix" run-on sentences. There are some links on Schoology that will also help the students to prepare for this test.
Math: We are working on multiplying larger numbers and finding efficient strategies. The students will even be working on multiplying 2-digit by 2-digit numbers.
Science: The students will be investigating potential and kinetic energy using rubber bands. The students will also be evaluating friction on the vehicles.
Alabama History: We are studying the American Revolution and the Creek War. The kids really love this School House Rock:
