Reading
We will continue to learn about how an author sets a
mood, but this week we will be working with poetry.
Here are some questions to ask when you are reading
with your child.
• How did what you just read make you feel?
• What words did the author use that made you feel that
way?
• How does the illustration (picture) make you feel?
• What about the picture makes you feel that way?
• How does the picture relate to the mood the author
creates with the words in the text?

*** Check out www.studyjams.scholastic.com *** There are
great Science and Math videos that can help your child
review for the upcoming tests. Also, you may find helpful
math videos on www.learnzillion.com. On my webpage,
you will find the codes for the current skills being taught in
Math.
We are starting a review of the skills we have learned
so far this year, like – capitalization, complete sentences,
compound and complex sentences, common and
proper nouns, verb tenses, possessives, contractions,
and subject verb agreement. Ask your child to identify
the words they use when they are talking to you as
nouns, verbs, or adjectives. This is a basic skill many of
them still have not mastered.
