We will move on to Week 2 of our NEIGHBORHOOD unit. This week’s theme is People and Places.
We’ll read a story called Bus Stops.
COMPREHENSION:

MATH-We will continue to work on “tens and ones.”
For example, “16 is _?__tens and ___?__ones. 16 is 1 10 and 6 ones.”
“10 is 1 10 and 0 ones.”
SOCIAL STUDIES-Map making! Yesterday we made a map of our classroom and it turned out great! In fact, they did such a wonderful job on following my directions and using the Compass Rose, that I told them I wanted to keep them for a few days. We even made desks for each student and labeled the desks with initials. Lots of math with this map making.
SCIENCE-We will work with PHYSICAL SCIENCE. We’ll start with Landforms (mountains and rivers). They will be working in groups to create a map of a town and we will add things to the “neighborhood” each day. Monday we will create the streets and add houses. Tuesday we’ll add some Neighborhood Features (Police station, Firehouse, etc), Wednesday we’ll add on Landforms, and I’ll see what else they will want to add on Thursday/Friday.
