WEEK OF: May 13th - 17th, 2013


*Reading – In Reading we will be testing our story “Jalapeno Bagels” on Wednesday 5/15/13. In our story, the narrator is trying to decide what treat to take to his class at school. As he helps his parents make food items in the bakery shop, he goes over his choices. Able to draw from his mother’s Latin American heritage and his father’s Jewish heritage, he has an unusual array of choices. Our skill this week is Draw Conclusions ….A conclusion is a decision or opinion that makes sense based on facts and details. You can listen to our story by clicking on this link: http://pesfroghall.org/Jalapeno%20Bagels.mp3

- We will begin our new story “The Statue of Liberty” on Thursday of this week.

*In Grammar we are working on Adverbs …. An adverb is a word that can tell how, when, or where something happens. Adverbs tell more about the actions that are named by verbs. Adverbs can come before or after the verbs that they describe. Adverbs that tell how something happens or happened often end in -ly. Our test will be on Wednesday 5/15/13.

*In Math, we will be working on Lessons 118-120.  We will have a 6x’s test on Thursday 5/16/13, a Written test and 100 fact Multiplication test on Friday 5/17/13.
