Important Dates:
Sept. 4--Labor Day. No School
Sept. 13- Brookfield Zoo Trip
Reading: In reading this week we will continue with the close reading of Casey At the Bat. We will work through the vocabulary by sorting the words into categories based on the context of the sentence. We will also write the story from a different character's perspective.
English:- What is a Sentence?
We will begin a short unit on writing sentences. Students will review the rules for writing a complete sentence and study the four different types of sentences this week.
The students will also continue to work on their "Summer Memory" writing assignment.

This week's spelling/vocabulary list will include words with the suffixes -ible & -able. We will study the word pattern and how the suffix impacts the meaning of the base word. The final test is scheduled for Friday, 9/8.
Social Studies: We will continue our study of the Northeast. We will read and learn about Niagara Falls, and the three main mountain ranges in the Appalachian Mountains.
Mrs. Bucklin's Math Class: In math, the students investigate the relationship between multiplication and division using a number line, ratio table, and the area model. We will then focus on finding factors from 1-36. A quiz over module one is tentatively scheduled for Friday. The students will have a review sheet to help prepare for the quiz.
Have a great week!
