Parents,
Upcoming events: - September 30th - Half day - October 5th - Singapore Math Informational Night - 6:00-7:00 - October 7th - No school - October 10th-October 14th - Fall Break This week: - We will have 31 spelling words this week. Please be sure to write the markings on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday to receive full credit on homework. There will be 11 words on Monday and 10 words on Tuesday and Wednesday. - In math, we will be studying two and three digit subtraction with renaming. Throughout the week at home, please avoid the term "borrowing." At school, we use the language of renaming. Instead of borrowing a one, students learn that if we do not have enough ones or tens, we need to rename the number. For example, if we are subtracting 68 from 82, students would need to rename 8 tens to be 7 tens and 10 ones. When the ten ones are added to the two ones, we now have 12 ones, which is enough to subtract 8 from. There will be a quiz on Friday. - In history, we will continue to study the geography of North and South America. There will be a quiz on Tuesday over Canada, Mexico, the West Indies, and Central America. - In literature, we will read chapters 12 and 13 in Boxcar Children. There will not be quiz this week. - In grammar, we will discuss article adjectives. There will not be quiz this week. Please let me know if you have any questions. Mrs. Bennett
