LANGUAGE ARTS
In writing students are learning to 'toss out' details that are unimportant or unnecessary. Students are using the dictionary to search out words, and they are able to identify proper/common nouns and using capitals when necessary,
MATH
This week the students will have a short quiz on patterns...students have been working on patterns for the last three weeks....I am thinking that they should have no difficulties with this quiz! Also, this week we will begin to use base ten blocks to learn about place value and how to represent numbers in expanded form.

We will be having a short quiz on mapping & continents.
We are going to begin a Social Studies project in the library with Mrs. Gorman. Students will have to go through different stations to learn about Aboriginal history.
