Spelling
Due to the short week (we will only have three days of reading because of testing and early dismissal), we will not have spelling this week.
Reading
Our focus this week is on the reading strategy of monitor/clarify. Students should monitor how well they understand a story. If they don't understand something, they can reread or read ahead for help.

We are beginning a new chapter this week that will focus on multiplying by 1 digit numbers. The topics that we will cover include multiplication patterns, strategies for estimating products, multiplying 2 digit by 1 digit numbers, multiplying 3 & 4 digit numbers & money, and multiplying with zeroes! Knowledge of math facts will be of the utmost importance during this chapter!
