What are we focusing on this upcoming week?
- Writing: Students finished their organizers and started writing their expository essay drafts this week. We will continue these next week as they work to add text evidence and elaboration to their text. These will be due next Friday!
- Reading: We finished up our dramas and dove into a little poetry this week! Next week we will review skills to read expository texts such as finding the central idea and key details, paying attention to text features, and vocabulary.
- Math: This week we continued to practice division strategies and started to review for the Unit 2 test. As a grade level, we decided to push the test until Monday 10/24. We felt that one more day of preparation and practice would be helpful. 😊
- We highly recommend they practice their math and division facts at home during this unit.

- 4.2 (Ms. Smith): We will finish up the G.2 standard by classifying quadrilaterals by their lines and angles.
Next, we will move on to symmetry (G.3). Students will recognize lines of symmetry and draw lines of symmetry for different shapes and figures.
Since our test in on October 28th, students will receive their study guide next Friday, and I will also post it here. Students will complete their study guides independently, but we will go over the answers in class closer to the test date:)
