In Science, we are continuing our study of magnetism. This week, we did explorations of magnetic fields and forces.
In Math, we continue to practice addition and subtraction strategies for three-digit numbers. This week, our focus was on communicating mathematical reasoning.Today we played a game of “Musical Math” to practice telling different partners how we solved a problem. Ask your child how he or she liked this activity!
In Writing, students continue to develop their personal narrative writing. Some students have begun typing their stories on iPads or desktops, building keyboarding skills.
We have begun an integrated Social Studies and Reading mini-unit on the presidential election. This week, we read about the election process and students wrote about what they would do if they were in charge of the country. Next week, students will start staging a mock election campaign for literary characters.
