Math: We are again exploring different ways to use the number line. I will challenge their understanding by change the intervals of the number lines. Instead of going by units of 1 we will be increasing that interval to 5s and 10s. There will be no math homework this coming week.

Social studies: We wrapped up our light and sound unit! We will be looking at the famous american, Dr. Seuss and his impact on others. In this author study we will look through his life, books, and legacy. We will explore his books until break and this unit will end with our Grinchmas party! It will be a Dr. Seuss themed!
