Sorry for the late post! \u00a0Welcome back to everyone! \u00a0I hope everyone enjoyed a restful, fun break with family. \u00a0I know I did!<\/p>\n
Thank you to all for the Valentine goodies! \u00a0I definitely enjoyed them over the break. \u00a0Thank you also to all the parents for helping with our ice cream sundae party. \u00a0You made it so easy and it is greatly appreciated. \u00a0Once again, thanks to Mrs. Mathis for organizing!<\/p>\n
This week we are learning:<\/p>\n
Spelling–Oops, the Thursday before break was so busy we didn’t get to the Spelling test. \u00a0Students are doing word work activities with the words to practice and we will take the test this Friday.<\/p>\n
Daily 5\/CAFE–We are working on summarizing this week, using main ideas. \u00a0We are also focusing on strong verbs. \u00a0Students are flagging in their reading and sharing so we can then transfer these to our writing.<\/p>\n
Math–Our focus this week is larger numbers–writing and reading them in different forms. \u00a0We are also working on pictographs. \u00a0Students are creating them using a key and are also answering questions based on the data in the graph.<\/p>\n
Social Studies–We are learning about Michigan’s government. \u00a0Hopefully you saw the cool trees come home that students created based on what we have learned about the 3 branches of government. \u00a0We should finish up late this week or early next with rights and responsibilities of citizens. \u00a0 Students will be assessed next week.<\/p>\n
Writer’s Workshop–Our focus this week is a descriptive piece. \u00a0Students are creating stories about waking up to find out they have shrunk to the size of an ant. \u00a0We will be using our powerful, descriptive language in our stories.<\/p>\n
Have a great rest of the week!<\/p>\n
