Reading - this week we continued to build our independent reading stamina while adding to our strategies for comprehension, accuracy, fluency and expanding vocabulary.

Writing - we began working on how to brainstorm stories before beginning so that they have a beginning, middle and end.  We are using the symbols of a triangle, square and circle to help us remember what we need in each section of a story.

Math - Ms. Sultana continued to work with the group on reading numbers to the millions and on deciding greater than and less than.  They also worked on ordering numbers.

Socials - The class began to look at getting to know each other from a historical sense.  They looked at how important it is to know fact from opinion and began a discussion on stereotypes and why they are dangerous.

Health and Career - The class began to look briefly at the many important features of the agenda such as the onTRAC system (pg. 6-7).  We continued to focus on accountability and have done regular agenda checks for parent signatures each morning.

Art - For our art lesson this week we worked with chalk and charcoal to create 3-D Jack-o-lanterns.  Students have also continued their study of music and movement with Ms. Dolson.  We were also privileged to enjoy a performance by the Story Teller Theatre company for our first Young People's Concert of the year.

PE - the focus continues to be on volleyball and the basic skills of the game.
