* In Grammar, we are focusing on “Common and Proper Nouns”. A common noun names any person, place, or
animal. A proper noun names a special
person, place, or animal and begins with a capital letter. We will have a Grammar test on Tuesday
10/26/13.
* In Reading, we are reading the story
“Penguin Chick”. This story is an example of Expository Non-Fiction. We will
have a vocab quiz on Tuesday and Selection Test on Wed. You can listen to the story at link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30012488/READING%20STORIES/UNIT%202%20STORIES/03%20Penguin%20Chick%20%28Expository%20Nonfiction%29.mp3
* In Math, we will
continue to work on Topic 3 concepts. We
will begin to work with Subtraction on Three-digit
Numbers. We will subtract with place
value blocks, using the expanded subtraction algorithm, as well as borrowing. We will also have a fact quiz on Friday.
* In Science, we will begin Investigation 3 (Water Vapor).
