Quarter 3 Week 6

A note from Mrs. Chern… 

It has been a crazy track in but I think we are finally getting back

on track. I did love the snow. Hope you did too. There are a lot of

upcoming events this next week. Please be sure you are checking the

Brassfield website, DOJO, and marking the dates below so you don’t

miss anything. Interims will be going home on Wednesday. Please be on

the look out for them in our new GREEN Wednesday folders. 

Upcoming Week’s Standards… 

Reading: Comparing fiction and non-fiction on the same topic,

identifying the reasons why an author writes about a topic. 

Writing: Choosing our own topic, researching and writing our own All

About book digitally or on paper, student choice.

Math: 10 more, 10 less, 1 more, l less automatically

Social Studies: Finishing our Performance Task (the kids are in LOVE

with this project). Starting Science unit on Earth’s Systems,

I will be putting some double digit math word problems in your child’s

number lines to solve these. The strategy they use is their choice.
