Home-School Connection Home-School Connection (fold here) © Macmillan/McGraw-Hill Dear Family Member: This week, we’re reading Go West! about how railroads changed the Southwest. The main idea is that the railroad helped the Southwest grow. The railroad made it possible for farms and industries to succeed. For example, trains helped deliver crops and meat to the East. Trains also brought settlers to the Southwest and created new towns. Today, many big cities are along old railway lines. As I read, I am finding out that the details in the article support the main idea. This Week’s Skills Comprehension: main ideas and details Vocabulary: context clues— antonyms Spelling/Phonics: words with the letters thr, spr, scr, and str Name Word Workout WORDS TO KNOW established immigrants culture traditional communities Blast From the Past Write a story to tell about a relative who moved to America from another country.
