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:

• Please remind your child to turn in their January reading log!
• As Valentine's Day is getting closer, just a reminder that any Valentine's cards that students bring in may not contain candy.

Weekly Objectives:

Writing:  We will continue working on our fourth writing unit: Persuasive Speeches, Petitions, and Editorials. This week we will focus on creating powerful introductions and conclusions for our speeches.  We will also make sure to organize our writing using paragraphs.  Soon we will begin publishing!

Reading: We will continue our fourth reading unit: Research Clubs.  Over the past few weeks, each club has been studying and researching an animal.  This week each group will finish creating presentations on google slides about their animal.  We will be presenting our research to the class this week!

Math: This week we will continue Chapter 9: Properties and Equations.  We will focus on creating expressions using variables.  We will also learn the order of operations in order to evaluate expressions.  The test for this chapter is tentatively set for next Tuesday the 14th.  Study guides will come home this week!

Science: This week we will be finishing up our science chapter on the water cycle.  We will continue to talk about three types of clouds: cumulus, stratus, and cirrus.  The test for this chapter will be on Wednesday!  Study guides will come home on Monday.  

Have a great week!
