November 29th

Here's what we did today:
Writing-Students drafted their reindeer applications, filled out the formal application, and added antlers to a photo of themselves!  They have some very persuasive reasons for wanting to be a reindeer!

Reading-We began learning cause/effect.  We learned that you can have one cause with many effects and one effect with many causes.  We also saw how an effect can cause something else!  Having discussions at home about causes and effects would be a great way to reinforce the difference between these two concepts. 

Math-We learned a problem solving strategy that asks us to work backwards.  That is just one strategy to use and tonight's homework may require the use of different strategies.

Word Study-Groups 1 and 2 got their new words.

Homework:
Read and Write!

Math-WS 9.4-all problems--Show your work!

We are visiting the book fair tomorrow and Friday!

Don't forget Adopt a Family items!

Have a good night :)
