To kick off the month of December, we will be focusing on Random Acts of Kindness. Our class is excited and ready to spread joy! We hope it spills out of our  classroom, down the halls, and out into our community! 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! What a wonderful time to relax and gather with friends and family.

Here is what is happening in room 34 this week....

Science: We are learning how plants are classified based on their characteristics. 

Math: We are working on multiplying decimals with and without visual models, multiplying decimals by powers of 10, problem solving by looking at patterns, and multiplication properties.

Writing: We are publishing our final historical nonfiction writing piece and will celebrate this Thursday. We will then move onto our unit on Memoirs.

Reading: We are excited to start a new unit on social issues within book clubs! We will be reading through the lens of identifying and interpreting the author's and our own view on social issues. We will learn that reading for social issues can help you better understand and empathize with people in books, movies, and the world!

Social Studies: We are wrapping up on study of early explores and will present our projects today and tomorrow. We then begin studying the Lost Colony of Roanoke and the settlement of Jamestown.

This Friday will be WACKY HAIR DAY, bring a dollar in for our Concord Helping Hands.
