This Week’s Academics
Spelling– We learned about prefixes and suffixes this week. We also focused on the
sounds of /ow/ and /ou/.
Reading– We started reading our first novel, Stone Fox this week. We will probably
finish it next week.
Writing- This week, we focused on the ideas trait of writing. We practiced writing
with more descriptive words and details.
Math– We started Unit 4 (decimals) this week. We are currently learning how to
convert fractions to decimals (and decimals to fractions) along with how decimals and
fractions can relate to money. We will learn about rounding decimals next week.
