We are off to a GREAT start! Here is what's happening on the academic front...

     *VA Studies/Science: We are finishing our unit on the geography of Virginia--have you kids share fun facts with you! We will then become scientists/engineers and work on some experiments together! We will explore the engineering design brief process while experimenting!

     *Math: We are ROUNDING out the number sense unit (haha) and will test on all things place value, comparing, ordering, and rouding whole numbers! We will then use what we know about place value to add and subtract numbers with regrouping through the MILLIONS! 

     *Language Arts: In reading, we are finishing finding the elements of fiction and nonfiction and also asking questions while reading. We will be starting author's purpose in text.

For writing, we will move from writing sentences to putting them together into paragraphs! 

     Please remember to read with your child nightly, study their social studies refrigerator card, and practice math using steps in the math journals to help support their academic growth!
