Mind Mission Pictures
In Math, we have been working hard on multiplication strategies. We will continue to practice multiplication strategies next week as well. Please ask your learner about these strategies and have them show you what they have learned as practice!
In Science, we have started our weather unit by taking an in-depth look at the water cycle. Next week we will begin to study weather patterns and fronts.
In Language Arts, we will begin our nonfiction unit. Learners will begin to learn how to analyze nonfiction texts to read for learning. We also have begun digging deeper into expository writing. We will learn how to appropriately apply transition words and spell homophones.
In Social Studies, we have started talking about the Texas Revolution. We will start exploring the important people of the revolution, and we are excited to introduce the Alamo.
