What Are We Learning?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reading
Good Readers Question While Reading, but HOW? and WHY?
Thick and Thin Questions
The text we are using to model and practice is in our reading book. It is titled My Very Own Room. We will not be testing on this story, but using it as a tool to learn how asking questions makes us better readers.

Language
Writing and identifying complete sentences
Prefixes un- re- and pre-
The best practice is to read with your child and find words that have those prefixes and identify the types of sentences that you are reading as a family.

Social Studies
Native Americans in South Carolina: Cherokee, Catawba, and Yemassee
This is Chapter 3 in our textbook. Students must be able to identify the characteristics of each tribe including culture, government, and daily life.

Science
Animal and Plant Adaptations
A good way to practice this is to ask your child why a specific animal or plant can or cannot live in a habitat. For example, why can a cactus not grow in the rainforest?

We will have school make up pictures taken on Thursday, November 5th. This is for any student who was not here at school that day. This is a pre-pay picture packet.
Also, if a student took their picture on September 17th and would like to re-take them, they can do so at this time. The original whole set of pictures will need to be returned to be able to have the re-take pictures made.
