Week of October 14, 2008 

Welcome to a new week of school.  Please continue to check your child's 
agenda and purple folder for important assignments and notices.

Language Arts:
Our weekly anthology story is Lemonade for Sale, a realistic fiction story 
written by Stuart J. Murphy.

Math:
We will continue to learn about strategies that help us with our subtraction 
facts.

Social Studies:
We will continue to learn about our rights and responsibilities as citizens 
of a community.

Science:
We are learning about the states of matter; solids, liquids, and gasses.


** The October Book Report genre is realistic fiction.  Students must choose 
a book and show it to his/her teacher by Friday October 17th.  Book Reports 
and Reading Calendars are due on Thursday October 30th.

Realistic fiction consists of stories that tell about situations occurring in 
the real world. There can be no magic or fantasy involved in the plot, 
although there may be very unusual events occurring or even exaggerated 
characters. The events in the story did not truly happen, but they could 
happen.
