Week of: November 24th Math: This past week in math we learned many strategies for solving multiplication problems. Please continue to use the fact cards I sent home and log on to www.xtramath.org to practice your facts. Monday We also spent yesterday and today on the distributive property. I have attached step by step directions on the next page. Please use this to help with homework. The property is a great strategy if you do not know your facts for the bigger numbers. Tuesday Day 4- Library Bring your Books! Language Arts: In language arts next week we will be using Thanksgiving themed stories. We will be comparing and contrasting, looking at maps, and learning about the history of Thanksgiving. We will also be doing a Thanksgiving Webquest in which we will visit a variety of websites to view pictures, read articles, and watch video clips of Plymouth Plantation and the first Thanksgiving. Social Studies- Monday I will be senting home a timeline project. This will be due December 12th. Each child is asked to create a timeline about their life to share with the class. Timelines are a part of our Social Studies Chapter. Wednesday Day 1- Gym Wear Sneakers! Thursday No School Happy Thanksgiving!
