Halloween is Tomorrow! You may dress up, NO WEAPONS
Field Trip- November 9th
Learning this Week:
Math: Students will continue to multiply numbers using a variety of strategies. We will be finishing Topic 3, and begin Topic 4 (Multiplying 2-digit Numbers). Students will be estimating products and using models to multiply two digit numbers.
Science/S.S: Students will conduct a special Halloween mystery science experiment! In addition, we will begin our U.S. Regions unit by starting with map skills.

Learning this Week:
Math: Students will be multiplying 2 and 3-digit numbers, by 1 digit numbers, using a variety of methods. They will use the distributive property, area model, array, and partial products method. Students will focus on Mathematical Practice #5 (Use appropriate tools strategically). They will build array models to represent multiplication problems. In addition, students will continue to write about math, practice fact fluency, and practice math workshop routine.
Science: We will be finishing our unit on weathering and erosion this week. We will complete sorting activities and create a concept map of vocabulary words based on scientific articles.

Week of 10/16
Good Afternoon!
Reminders for the Week:
Daily math sheet
Read 25 mins. each night
*Book Orders- Tues.
*Math Test Slip- ASAP
*Fun Run Pledge $- Wednesday
Learning this Week:
Math: We will be taking our Topic 2 Assessment (Addition and Subtraction) and begin Topic 3 (Multiplying by One Digit Numbers). Students will use mental math to multiply by multiples of 10,100, and 1,000. We will also be rounding whole numbers to estimate products. If time allows, we will begin multiplying by using the distributive property.
Science: We will continue within our Discovery Education unit, "The Changing Earth." Students will show their understanding of landforms by taking an assessment. We will continue investigating weather, erosion, deposition, and the effects on our Earth's landforms. Students will read articles and groups and complete activities online.

Complete nightly math sheet
*Open House Thursday Night 6:30-8 PM*
*Field Trip Money Order/Permission Slip- Wednesday
*Picture Day- Monday, 10/16
*Please turn in picture day forms
*Book Order- Tuesday 10/17
Learning this Week:
Math: This week we will finish and review Topic 2 (Addition and Subtraction). Students will focus on Mathematical Practice #6 (Attend to Precision) and Mathematical Practice #1 (Persevere in Problem Solving) as they solve addition and subtraction word problems by writing explanations. Students will complete the Topic 2 Review, and continue learning the routines of math workshop.
Science: Students will define weathering and erosion by completing a sorting activity. Students will create posters to describe how landforms form. In addition, we will complete an erosion lab to see how it all works in action!

*Fun Run- Wed. Oct. 4th *wear sneakers!*
*1/2 Day/Early Release- Friday
*No School Monday 10/9 (Columbus Day)
Learning this Week:
Math: We will be focusing on the start of Topic 2 (Addition and Subtraction). Students will be expected to estimate sums by rounding, add/subtract multiple five digit numbers, and use mental math skills to build number sense. In addition, we will be using bar diagrams to represent addition and subtraction word problems.
Science: Students will be using "board builder" to demonstrate their knowledge of landforms. We will be reviewing constructive and destructive forces, and plate boundaries. Students will read articles in groups and present research to the class.
