Here's a synopsis of the week ahead.
ELA: We are reading nonfiction and determining main ideas and key details. This continues from last week. Students often have free choice reading time. Some students continue to read "series" books. Others pick poetry, likely because we are working with that genre in writing. Please have your child do spelling sorts at home, as this promotes better reading and writing as they learn new patterns.
Math: Our unit on addition and subtraction with ungrouping will conclude prior to vacation. The students should be able to read a math story, know whether to add or subtract and solve the problem. They should also be able to solve 2-step story problems. Some students still need to memorize basic addition and subtraction facts.
Science: Tests on our plant unit were sent home Friday.
Thanks for checking in and I hope you are having a great weekend!
