Math: 

Objectives this week: 

• Use place value understanding to round multi-digit numbers to any place value.

• Use place value understanding to round multi-digit numbers to any place value using real world applications. 

• Use place value understanding to fluently add multi-digit whole numbers using the standard addition algorithm, and apply the algorithm to solve word problems using tape diagrams. 

• Solve multi-step word problems using the standard addition algorithm modeled with tape diagrams, and assess the reasonableness of answers using rounding.

ELA: 

Objectives this week: What is a great heart, literally? 

To help with this objective, we will be diving into our first book of the year called The Circulatory Story. We will also be focusing on identifying main ideas and details in the pages of our book, The Circulatory Story. We will start identifying the figurative language (similes and metaphors) within the book. Each student will complete their figurative language booklet this week explaining how the similes or metaphors have helped them understand the text and what a literal heart is.

Writing: 

This week we will continue to work on constructing a "painted paragraph." Within a painted paragraph, students have to identify the main idea, two details that support the main idea, and proof through paraphrasing to prove their main idea. The focus of this paragraph will be on the figurative great heart shown by Helen Keller. 

Science:

This week we will be connecting our idea of why rivers flow to how beaches have sand. Through Mystery Science activities, students will see the relationship between rivers and mountains and how they both have a part in producing sand at the base of mountains. 

Homework:

• Reading: Independent reading 20 minutes each night
• Remember, it is your child's responsibility to ask you to initial the reading log as well as the agenda each day.

• Math: Homework will be given if students show full understanding of the concept. We will be doing practice problems during class that resembles the homework so they have appropriate support in completing their homework. Homework has the potential to change after gauging student understanding of the concept.
