Math and Science Week of May 12th

Parents,

This week will be a whirlwind of events and a little wild!  

In Math this week we are taking our previous learning about multiplying two digit by one digit numbers and we will now be applying them to WORD PROBLEMS!!!  Everyone's favorite.  You will see this in your child's HW on Monday and Tuesday night.  On Wednesday next week will work on the Problem Solving Method and Thursday and Friday we will introduce using Roman Numerals!!!  Yes!!!  This is a really fun thing to learn about because that means we are starting our Winds Of Time Unit.  Have your child look around the house for something that has Roman Numerals on it.  Their HW on Wednesday night is to bring to school something that has Roman Numerals on it to show their classmates.



Yes we are still doing Multiplication Fast Facts!!!  This week will be graded so STUDY, STUDY, STUDY.

In Science we are moving on to Plants and Adaptations. This will be the last thing we study before we embark on our Winds of Time Unit concerning Volcanoes.  In the beginning of the week, we will discuss plant life cycles and then phase over to adaptations and why scientists believe they occur in plants and animals.    

Special happenings this week: 
1. Roman Soldier presentation in Library on Friday at 9:00 a.m.


Have a great week!
Ms. S
