Reading - This week we will continue to work on identifying the key ideas and details of non-fiction text. We will also continue to listen to our inner voice when we read to make connections and deepen our understanding.  On Monday through shared reading we wil read The Turkey's Lucky Day: Presidential Pardon. Students will continue to build stamina in their independent reading by reading to self, reading to someone, and visiting the listening center during Daily 5 rotations.

Writing - This week we will work on finishing up our narrative piece that describe actions, thoughts, and feelings. We will also continue to work on contractions.

Math - This week we will begin working on subtracting single digit numbers.  Please remember to have your child practice their Rocket Math facts nightly. This can be done orally or written. Rocket Math tests are given on Tuesday and Thursday.

Inquiry - Students will finish their research on state government symbols.  

Due to the short week students will not have a words their way spelling assessment.  A new sort will come home on Tuesday for the week of November 26th.

Health alert...until the new year only wrapped store boughten treats will be allowed for birthdays and holiday parties.  Thank you for your understanding!
