Reading

This week during reading we will compare different versions of the same story in traditional and contemporary folktales with respect to their characters, settings and plot.  We will also learn the elements of a fable such as:

1. Fables are fictional stories
2. These stories are normally short
3. They were written a long time ago
4. The characters in a fable are usually animals that act like humans
5. The setting is typically outside
6. The story teaches a moral lesson.

 

Math

We are continuing to learn double digit addition with regrouping.
