Week of 26-30

It's been a lovely September. Here's some of the happenings for the last week of the month.

ELA: Students will continue to work on narratives and learn how to enhance them. They will start reading in groups and with partners. We will be reading different texts about Johnny Appleseed. Then students will compare and contrast them. They will  retell stories. They will also practice stopping during a story to think about the things that are occuring. Our word of the week is justice.

Math: Our math concepts and practice for the week include identifying numbers as even or odd, addition strategies that utilize doubles (8+8 for example), equation chains (5-2=0+3 or 12=8+4=13-1), adding with 3 addends and adding and subtracting vertically.

Social Studies: We will complete our unit on Characteristics of Communities. Students will recognize natural geograpic features, businesses, recreational areas and more.  Honesty is our trait of the week as well as continuing with responsibility.
