Week of December 18-22
Reminders:
Please remember to have your child bring snowpants and boots! Anytime we are allowed, we will have recess outside and the kids love the snow!!
Wednesday—Late Start
Friday–Our holiday party–1:00-1:45
Sing-a-long in the Gym 2:30-3:30
We are learning:
Spelling–Due to the Snow Day and Field trip last week, I postponed the Spelling test until tomorrow. We will then be using holiday words in our writing for our words this week. No Test on Friday though!
Daily5/CAFE–This week we are finishing up with our book club books and are working on our individual roles within the groups. Students are working on summarizing, asking questions, being word wizards and real life connectors.
Writer’s Workshop—We are finishing up our narrative/opinion pieces about a possible change in Santa’s suit. Students wrote 4 four paragraphs and included 3 pieces of evidence to support the position. They wrote it in narrative form though, to make it more fun. They have turned out sooo cute! Some students are working on typing their stories. They are hanging outside the classroom if you want to take a look!
Science–Students have been using their Claim, Evidence, Reasoning to perform different science experiments that explore energy. We will be doing a couple more activities this week and will then move back to Social Studies.
Math–MATH TEST UNIT 4 on Thursday. Study Guide will come home tonight and tomorrow, but we will be doing it in pieces, so please make sure it comes back. We will be reviewing conversions for measurement (standard and metric) before the test.
Have a wonderful week!
