In reading, we will continue analyzing character traits and will use evidence from the text to prove our thinking. In writing, we will identify characteristics of realistic fiction through mentor texts and develop story ideas that stem from personal experiences.

Math
This week students will be using the partial quotient method to solve real world division problems. It is suggested that the students brush up on their multiplication and division facts in order to help them solve these word problems.
