January News Note

Here is the January news note!

Super Science- We are coming to a close in our study of natural resources. We will finish up with how to reuse, reduce, and recycle this week. Then we will take on the topic of matter- the 3 states of matter, density, conductors and insulators.

Marvelous Math- Decimals are where it's at! We are learning how to relate decimals to fractions, including mixed numbers, adding and subtracting decimals, and ordering and comparing decimals.

Terrific Texas History- Finally, we are hearing some familiar names! Texas is being settled and the Old Three Hundred are moving in. We will continue to study the early beginnings of Texas.

Language Arts- In reading, we are continuing to apply our reading comprehension skills to non-fiction and fiction stories within our Storyworks magazine. In writing, the focus in on expository writing and being able to write a response to a given prompt. Spelling and Wordly Wise are still alternating.
