April 13- April 29

Spring Carnival is Friday april 15 @ 4:30pm, I hope to see you there! 

Math:
We have begun doing a spiral review of concepts taught this year! We are preparing for our end of the year assessments! 

Language Arts:
Please be sure your child is practicing their reading fluency (oral) every night.  Students are more comfortable reading in their heads and have a harder time reading exactly what is printed on the page out loud.  They can read to you, their siblings, or even their stuffed animals for good practice! 
We have been working hard on writing persuasive essays and publishing our work. 
We have also been working on identifying the most important event in a book and citing the evidence.

Social Studies:
We have just started our Mini Society Unit here in Kupper Canyon! Students have been placed in business teams of their choice, decided on a product, and are working on collecting the supplies they need to make their products. ALL SUPPLIES ARE DUE NO LATER THAN THURSDAY 4/28. Students have been creating our town's laws, learning about what happens when a law is broken, choosing a job, and learning how they get payed and rewarded. Students have also begun learning specific economic vocabulary such as needs, wants, good, services, consumer, producer, etc.
