Good morning! I'm apologizing again for not getting the blog up on time.
Reading: In reading our skills this week are asking and answer questions and theme (or the lesson/message). What are some messages in animal stories? is our focus of the week. We are reading folktales. This genre is centered around animal characters and teaching a lesson. It works hand in hand with learning theme.
Math: In math this week we are continuing to learn different multiplication strategies. We have learned expanded form, partial product, and various strategies for attacking multiplication using mental math.
Social Studies: In social studies we are working on using a key to find information on a map.
Montana History: We are preparing to study the rivers and mountains in Montana for next week.
Spelling: /u/, /yoo/, and /oo/
