*READING/SPELLING  Our story this week is “A Walk in the Desert." We are learning to identify the main idea and details of a story.  Reading "Daily Grade #4" will be on Thursday. Spelling words include "inflected endings."  Spelling Test will be on Friday.
  

Please write Spelling words three times each every night at home! We will check words at school daily.  I HIGHLY recommend that parents give their children a practice test every Thursday night. Remember: Words from LAST week will be included in this week's dictation sentences.

 
**There are two parts to doing homework: Doing the work at home, and returning it in the homework pocket of your Apple Binder. 




**LANGUAGE/HANDWRITING
We are continuing to practice making good sentences.  We are learning about four types of sentences:  declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. Language Test will be on Friday.  **Students must remember that handwriting is very important.



**MATH
We will read and write numbers to 1000 using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form.  Our class will begin studying "Odd/Even" numbers this week as well.  Use addition flash cards, games and computer activities to reinforce addition facts.

I encourage students to play computer games at home on www.abcya.com.
