Reminders:
We had a wonderful Mock Election in the library today. We went to our voter booths and selected our candidate of choice from the four presidential candidates. We discussed how the decision we make is private and it is a big responsibility. We will see many voters on campus tomorrow showing us how they use their right to vote!

We will be learning more about nonfiction text. We will be focusing on the Main Idea of nonfiction texts as we read and learn. We will continue to read to learn about spiders as well as write facts about spiders. In Writing Workshop we will create a table of contents and organize the facts we write.
This week in Science...
We will be learning about forces with magnets! We will predict how the magnets will work then we will explore different types of magnets. We will record our observations in our science notebooks as we learn about magnets.
This week in Math...
We will begin stretching our knowledge about place value this week. We will practice with patterns on hundreds charts and magnetic tens frames so we can understand that the TENS place has groups of ten and the ONES place has single units. We will learn how to think about numbers in expanded form.
Have a great week!
