We are in for an extra cool week this week. Please send a coat, hat, and gloves with your child everyday. If the "feels like" temperature is 45 degrees or below they have to wear all three of these. 

Math-

Students will practice telling time to the nearest 5 minutes. They will read the time on an analog clock, and then read it in different ways. 5:30 could be 30 minutes after 5, or half past 5. If you want to practice time at home, your child could make a practice clock out of a paper plate, a brad and some paper arrows for the hour and minute hands. If they color the minute hand blue and the hour hand red, it will correspond to the student clocks in the classroom.  I'll introduce AM and PM time.

Reading-

The class will work on making new words with the prefix over. Students will play a game where they have to compare and contrast two pictures. They will continue working on comparing and contrasting characters in Dex: Heart of a Hero, and practice writing commas in a series of nouns.

Science and Social Studies-

During science students will take what they know about the properties of different solid materials, and build a tower. They will paint the landforms they started last week, during social studies. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great week!
