  • We will also complete our measurement unit where students will measure length and volume!

Science

  • Our Science unit this quarter focuses on Soil and all the different components within it. Be on the lookout! We will be asking students to bring in soil from their home environments so we can make observations about the diverse range of soils in our world.

Social Studies

  • For social studies, we are talking about Ancient China! Feel free to find some books and documentaries your child could look at to learn more about this incredible civilization! 

Questions to ask your child at home.

  • Who are you interested in learning about?
  • What is a real problem that could happen to you or me?
  • What do you notice about the soil/dirt around our house? Do you know how it helps us and the animals near us?
  • What do you know about the ancient Chinese emperors?
  • Can you add/subtract these numbers? Tell me how you did it!
