Objectives This Week....


Reading- This week in reading our focus is on visualizing, drawing conclusions, and questioning as we read. All of this helps us determine what is important. Being able to acknowledge the important features of what we have read is one of the keystones of being a good reader.
Writing: Students will work on the prewriting and rough draft for our first paper. We will focus on our senses and incorporate our thoughts and feelings into our writing.
Math – This week students will continue to use place value to read, write, compare and Decimals. We will have a Decimal Place Value Test on Tuesday for our first Major Grade.  We will then be working on rounding whole numbers to the nearest 10, 100, or 1,000 to approximate reasonable results.
Science – Students will describe how to demonstrate safety during investigations, discover new information using the scientific process, as well as identify and explain how to use scientific tools. Students will conduct experiments in a laboratory setting and explore the functions of controlled variables.
Social Studies – We will continue to look at the first Texas, the Native Americans. We will learn about the differences in tribes and focus on our vocabulary words. There will be vocabulary test Friday.**
