November 14th-18th

Hello Families of Room 2!
Listed below are the important reminders and objectives for our week.  Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!

Important Reminders:

• This week we will continue our helping hands campaign!  This week is cleaning products.  Any contributions you can make are greatly appreciated!
• Last week, a permission slip for our first field trip came home with your child.  Please turn this in as soon as possible!

Weekly Objectives:

Writing:  This week, we will begin our third writing unit: Informational Books!  We start this unit off by brainstorming topics we would like to become experts on.  We will then choose a topic and look for books, magazines, and any information we can find to help us begin our unit!

Reading: This week we will begin our third reading unit: Reading to Learn.  This week we will focus on previewing multiple nonfiction texts and taking a look at the text features that we notice.  We will also work on understanding the main idea of a nonfiction text.

Social Studies:  This week we finish chapter 7: Being an Active Citizen.  We will have our test this Tuesday.  Study guides were sent home last week.

Math:  This week we will begin Chapter 6: Multiplication and Division Patterns.  We will focus on the multiplication and division patterns of 2, 5, and 10.  The test for this chapter will be next Tuesday, the 22nd, right before we leave for Thanksgiving break.  

Have a great week!
