This week in curriculum: 

In math we are finishing up learning about our multiplication and division strategies to solve for our facts. We will be taking our quiz over multiplication and division strategies, word problems, and properties tomorrow.  Study guides went home last Thursday, and are due tomorrow.  We will then begin Chapter 9 where we learn to write multiplication and division expressions and equations.  

In english language arts, we are continuing to learn about making inferences.  We are learning to make inferences in poetry.  In writing we are continuing to draft and revise our fictional narratives.  We are narrowing our revising to endings, making sure it all fits together, and making sure our characters seem real to our readers.  We will have our spelling test this Friday.  Tic Tac Toes are also due on Friday.  

One week until conferences!  I look forward to meeting with all of you! Have a great week!
