Writing = We worked on drafting our personal narratives this week.  Please ask your child what they chose for their topic and why.  This week, we will add to our drafts, add in dialogue, and add sensory details.

Math = With our short week, we began digging into Chapter 5 and will continue to do so this week.  It is a shorter chapter than the other ones we have completed so we will set a tentative date for testing on Thursday (it may be later).  Please ask your child about the area model and turtle head strategies we tried last week.  Here is a link to the short clip we watched on Friday to help us with 2 digit times 2 digit numbers.
