Mid-terms went home on Friday.

Currently we are working on writing personal narratives. Students are working on narrowing topics and drafting their stories. We will be focusing on show not tell details in a story. In reading we are working on asking questions and making predictions based on evidence from the text that is sited in their response in their notebooks. In social studies we are working on reading and understanding maps. In math we are working on addition, subtraction with borrowing, word problems, and rounding.

What students are reading at home, they can also be reading at school. This will help students focus on one book at a time and really get into the book.
