Homework for 8/27

Math: "Getting Ready" Worksheet
Reading: 20 Mins
Social Studies: Page 16; #1-7

We are working on counting using base ten block in math. The students have been introduced to this in 3rd grade so we will only be reinforcing what they already know.
Next week, our class will look at Place Value, Comparing & Ordering Number, Standard and Expanded forms and rounding.
We will being reading from "Frindle" next week in reading. This is a shorter chapter book to introduce Main Idea as well as summarizing what is read.
Writing will focus on the Writing Menu. Students will start our with short "appitizers" then move on to the "main course." The dessert will be something artistic that will help promote their writing.
Social Studies will continue to look at North Carolina and how it has changed over time. Homework will be issued throughout the week.

This has been a great week of school. I am very please with the class in their behavior. Keep up the great work!
