This week (3-11-19) we will be focusing on:
Reading:
Describe characters, settings, and major events in a story, using key details.
Writing:
Write narrative texts in which students supply some facts about a topic and some sense of closure.
Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach.
Math:
Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.
Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones.

Plan and conduct investigations to determine the effect of placing objects made with different materials in the path of a beam of light.

Use personal directions (left, right, front, back) to describe the relative location of significant places in the school environment.
Distinguish between landmasses and bodies of water using maps and globes.
March Reading Month Contest
Miller School is having an amazing contest for the Month of May. Students will earn raffle tickets by passing tests after each lesson on iReady with a score of at least 80%. They will also earn tickets by reading books and making a well written book report. The more tickets they earn, the better chance they have to win some wonderful prizes. The prizes include $10, $25, and $50 gift cards. The grand prize is a new bike. Please encourage your child to earn as many tickets as they can this month. I would love to have many winners from our class! 🙂
