Week in Review: August 20-24

This week we continued our work with place value and discussed how it relates to converting within the metric system. Ask your kids about King Henry and his chocolate milk! In social studies, we completed a mini unit on economics to lay a foundation for some of our work with the American Revolution later this fall.

Looking Ahead

Keep an eye out for traveling folders coming home this week. Take a look at your child's spelling and vocabulary quiz and economics quiz, sign the traveling folder, and have your child return the folder to school by Friday. Feel free to keep the quizzes for your own records.

In academics, we'll be working on expanded form and comparing decimal numbers. We'll also be starting a small writing project and beginning to connect our reading book, Night of the Spadefoot Toads, with some science topics.
