This Week: 
Math:  Chapter 12, DIVISION! This chapter test will be next week.  We will 
continue to review/test multiplication facts according to the schedule I sent 
home. If you know your multiplication facts, division is easy!  

Reading: Our story this week is an Expository Non-fiction story, A Tree is 
Growing.   An expository non-fiction story is one that explains information 
and ideas. 
Robust Vocabulary: Practice using our vocabulary words in conversation and 
sentences. 
Reading Skill: Author’s Purpose;  An author writes  story for a reason. It 
may be to entertain you, give you information about a topic, or give his or 
her opinion about a topic. We will also practice reading diagrams. 

English/Writing: Unit 4: We are learning about adverbs. Class work will be 
graded.  I don’t assign English homework, but you may take your English book 
home to review if you need to improve your grade.

Social Living: Study your study guide every evening. Chapter 10 Test will be

missed at home.
