Great job recording reading minutes on the Nowlin Reading log. The logs are due every Friday in March. Each child that turns in their reading log gets their name placed in a drawing to win principal for the day! Ms. Rauch picks a name each Friday out of names of students who have turned in their reading logs!
Also, the class that turns in the most reading logs can win a pizza party!
It’s been an exciting week learning all about the common good and individual rights in Social Studies.
We are starting measurement in Math while continuing to build on our addition and subtraction facts.
We’ve been learning how to summarize our reading: Characters and Setting fall under First and next. The problem and events where characters try to solve their problem fall under then and after that. The solution would fall under finally. Practice summarizing with your books that students are reading at home. Thank you for sending Nowlin reading books back to school promptly.
During Writing Workshop and REading we’ve been reading and writing fantasy stories. Some of our wonderful authors were able to share stories in the Nowlin Newspaper and during the Brainstormers assembly this week. All of our students are winners as they continue to grow in writing each day. Kids were proud of their classmates that got their stories published.
During Science we are learning about water and how much water we used on a given day. We then graphed our results and discovered that we drank water far more than anything!
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Gina Parana
