Reading:
The 3rd graders learned about similes this week and the 4th graders learned about metaphors. We also had a Latin/Greek test.
The students received new spelling words. This week their words are contractions. They will need to know how to spell the contraction, what two words make up the contraction, and what letters are missing in the contraction.
Writing:
We finished up our Christmas Around the World informational papers.
Grammar:
We reviewed abstract and concrete nouns on Monday by playing a slap game. Then on Wednesday we took the assessment. The students did a great job on this assessment!
Projects:
We finished up and presented our 51st state projects this week. When we come back after Christmas we will be starting science!
Secret Santa:
The students drew names for their Secret Santa. Remember to have their gift to school no later than Wednesday. Label who the gift is to but don't put who it is from.
Have a great week!!
