Dear Parents,
Week at a Glance
This week in handwriting we worked on letters “l”, “i”, “t”, and “o”. In reading we are discussing how authors describe characters in realistic fiction stories. In language class we are learning about syllables, sentences, and digraphs. This week we finished our first unit on addition and are beginning a new unit on subtraction. In religion we are learning about Abraham and how he prayed to God. For memory we learned the first and second commandments. In science we are continuing to learn about states of matter and how some matter can change from one state to another. This week in social studies we are learning about how communities change.
