Day 30: Wednesday, September 28th

Good Afternoon, Room 36 Families,

The students had Earth Science Lab with Mr. Bryant today. Ask them what they learned!
Also, the students created their initial models of the Rock Cycle.  We will be analyzing and revising our models over the next week.
Most of the students have had a chance to play Multiplication Four Square now, and they suggested we have a tournament! More details coming soon...

You may have noticed that Chapter 3 (Understanding Multiplication & Division) in the math book seems to be much easier for the students than Chapters 1 (Place Value & Rounding) and 2 (Adding & Subtracting Whole Numbers).   Room 36 is doing really well with their multiplication facts!  About 1/3 have moved beyond the basic multiplication chart during the timed drill, and the rest are getting closer every day.

Because the math homework is less time consuming, the language arts is a little longer this week.  Please message me if your child gets stuck, or has a question.  I have been talking to them about asking for help when they need it, and looking up words they don't know.

Homework:
- Read for 20 minutes + reading log
- MyMath: Ch3, L3 (pages 151-152)
- Language Arts: Locating Key Facts or Information
