Reading = Team Meyer has been working with poetry from the book My Man Blue.  I have been very impressed with how positive they have been and how willing to share their thinking they are.  We have been using our five senses to visualize and clues from the text to infer.  This week we will continue with more poems from this book to explore the relationship more between Blue and Damon.

Writing = This week, we are back to our Imagined/Adventure Fiction.  We will be planning/pre-writing, drafting and beginning to revise and edit at the end of the week.  I am excited to see all the creative ideas come to life through Team Meyer's drafts.

Spelling = Look for new spelling words to come home on Monday.  We will be testing on Friday.

Math = This week, we will be working within Chapter 10 which works with both fractions and decimals.  We will look at what decimals look like, how to say and model them, and focus on the tenths and hundredths place.  Later in the week, we will compare and order decimals.

Content = Social Studies = Last week we had a wonderful time dressing up as our Famous Missourians.  This week, we will complete our biography projects.  Please be sure to look for our upcoming display as we allow you to take a walk through our museum.  Everyone will get an opportunity to hear and see the biographies this Thursday when you join us for our Musical Performance.  Team Meyer should be very proud of all the hard work they have put into this project and research.

Highlights of the Week...
