From the Teacher:
In math class this week, we will continue Chapter 6 in the math book. We will be counting bills and coins, making equivalent sets, comparing money amounts, making change, and adding and subtracting money. Please note that all November Math Calendar homework will be due on Wednesday, November 30th. In Grammar we will be reviewing all skills from Lessons 6-9 which includes simple and compound sentences, common and proper nouns, abbreviations, and singular and plural nouns. This week we will continue our AMSTI kit on Rocks and Minerals. We will continue conducting different investigations with mock rocks this week and we will begin testing some different minerals. Our field trip to DeSoto Caverns is this Friday, so we will be learning even more about the different types of rocks and minerals! Students received new reading logs for the month of November. Please remember that reading logs MUST show a total of 60 or more minutes of reading per week. November has 4 weeks (we will not count the week of Thanksgiving), so that would be 60 x 4 = 240 minutes total for the month of November.
