Reading Next week we will be reading The Three Little Pigs by Paul Galdone, and The Three Little Javalinas by Susan Lowell. Students will retell the stories, and compare the points of view of different characters in the stories.

Reading Logs  Continue to read for 20 minutes each night and record books read in the May log. May logs are due Monday, June 1st. 

Language Arts    

Spelling There was an assessment given today.  New word sorts will go home on Tuesday. This will be the last sort for the year. YAY! Students should complete a different activity each night (M-TH). Please encourage your child to practice their words!

Math  We are working through the topic:  Step Up to 3rd Grade. Next week students will learn how to recognize a polygon and describe it by its number of sides, and solve addition and subtraction problems that use geometry and measurement.

Math Facts Math facts should be reviewed daily.
