ELA  In Reading, students will focus on cause and effect. In writer's work shop students will continue the argumentative writing unit. They are writing an argumentative piece in which they are persuading their audience to buy their haunted house. We learned how to write a good hook this week. We will be describing 3 rooms and writing a closing next week.

Don't forget to read for 20 days (20 min each day) and record it in the October Reading Log.

SPELLING New sorts went home on Monday. Homework (3 items on the menu, 1 from each column) will be due on Thursday, 10/26, which is also the day of the test.  

SOCIAL SCIENCE We will continue to study the history of Downers Grove. Students will learn about The Underground Railroad and Prince Pond. There will be an assessment over DG when we are finished with our learning log. A study guide will go home next week. The exact date of the assessment has not yet been determined.

MATH A study guide for Unit 2 went home on Thursday. It will be due the Monday, Oct 23. The Unit test is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct 24. Our next unit will be Multi-digit Addition and Subtraction.

If your child should forget their Student Book or their Home Connections workbook at school, they can go into my google math classroom from a home computer and print the page they will need to complete for homework.
