Reading/Writing Workshop
This week the students will be working on writing skills.  They will learn to organize their ideas and choose a title.  We will be using the 5 steps in the writing process:  prewriting, drafting, revising, proofreading, and publishing.  We will be looking for spelling errors, complete sentences, capitalization, punctuation, and a topic sentence with related ideas.

Math
There will be a test on Chapter 1, Addition Facts and Strategies.  We will begin Chapter 2, Subtraction Facts and Strategies.  Students will use separate and compare meanings of subtraction to solve problems.

Students will learn that in order to grow up healthy, they need foods from the Five Food groups and physical activity.
