Thanks to the room moms for the fun-filled party. I’m sure the students enjoyed it immensely.
*Remember this is no school tomorrow(Tuesday November 7th).
Conferences
Conferences start this Thursday, November 9th, and continue next week on Wednesday November 15th and Thursday November 16th. I am sending home reminders tomorrow for your specific date and time.
Reading
For comprehension, the students are practicing giving a quick summary of a book they are reading (orally)
For accuracy, the students are making sure the word they are saying matches the picture and the initial sound or chunk of the word.
Math Unit 3
Unit 3 continues counting strategies using base 10 blocks, tally marks, number lines, and now coins (P’s, N’s, and D’s). They will be using number lines a lot to solve story problems. Telling time on analog clocks will also be in introduced in this unit.
Social Studies Unit 1 “What is a Family?”
This unit continues to talk about rules and responsibilities, as well as the differences and similarities of families with respect to culture. They will also be talking about events in their lives in reference to the Past, Present, and Future.
Science “Light”
We are now on to light waves and talking about things/materials we can see through, sort of see through, or not see through at all.
Writing
Writing will continue to be practiced during Work on Writing and process writing (Narrative, Opinion , and Informational) sessions. It will also be used in other subject areas; many times in whole group settings, but also independently to show or explain what they know or feel.
