Week 12
Dear 2B Families,
Our annual Read-a-thon event is on Thursday!
Here is our week of academics:
LITERATURE
Scholars read Chapter 5 of The Boxcar Children. Our vocabulary words are kettle and bundles. We will discuss resourcefulness as a character trait and how it relates to the children in our story.
POETRY
Recitations of “Merry Autumn Days” begin and will be carried on throughout the week.
SPALDING
There are 20 words this week. On Tuesday, we spell begun, collect, file, provide, sight, stood, fixed, fix, born. Wednesday’s words are goes, does, Tuesday, hold, drill, army, pretty, stole, income, bought. There is spelling homework on Thursday.
GRAMMAR & WRITING
We prepare for next week’s grammar test with a bunch of review. Scholars will review all they have learned about capitalization and punctuation rules, editing, and classifying sentences.

MATH
Our next unit topic is weight! A fun little activity at the grocery store this week: use the scales to see how much a pound of fruit or vegetables weigh. Add and subtract the items to see the different weights!
HW
Tuesday: Workbook, Pg. 83
Wednesday: 4.1B
Thursday: Workbook Catch-up (Review/complete pages through 83)
Friday: 4.2 B
SCIENCE
We will continue the study of the water cycle this week. We will learn about condensation and precipitation along with the water cycle on the earth. Ask your child to tell you the steps of the water cycle!
HISTORY
We are learning about one of the greatest feats of engineering in the world: The Great Wall of China. Your child should be able to recognize the Great Wall and understand the work required as well as why it was built. If your family enjoys documentaries, here is a good National Geographic video about the Great Wall.
