Math: Our first unit is on Place Value, Addition and Subtraction. We have begun with reading, writing, and identifying the place and value of each digit in a nine-digit whole number. Now, we are moving on to Comparing and Ordering, and Rounding Whole Numbers. This unit will be tested in two parts. It is imperative that students study their basic math facts every night.
VA Studies: We have begun the year with Virginia Geography and Native Peoples. Students will locate Virginia and its bordering states along with water features and the 5 regions. Students have their note pages so they should be reviewing the information each night.
Language Arts: We have begun reviewing prefixes and suffixes, and now we are moving on to homophones. We will begin assessing the students on their reading levels using an online Reading Assessment.
Science: We have introduced science this year with the Steps of the Scientific Method.
