Dear Parents, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Week at a Glance<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n This week we are learning about folktales, similes, and alliteration in reading. In language we are learning how to write possessive nouns. In math we are working on place value and expanded form with three-digit numbers. In science and technology we are practicing coding skills in preparation for programming our robots. During religion we are learning about Jesus’ ministry and miracles. This week in handwriting we are writing lowercase “s”, “j”, and “p” in cursive.
