Curriculum Updates:
Reading: We began our Nonfiction units. Students are spending time focusing on a Weather topic of their choice. We are working on understanding nonfiction texts and their structures as well as how to prepare yourself for reading a nonfiction text. We finished the week practicing how to take effective notes.
Writing: We started this week by writing personal essays. Boy, do we have some opinionated kiddos! I am excited by the change in schedule that we did last week. I have really seen improvement in the stamina by having writing take place earlier in the day. I can't wait to see how it continues!
Math: We are continuing to work hard at solving multiplication problems. We've done one digit by three digit, two digit by two digit, and one digit by four digit multiplication. Students have been practicing multiplication in small groups, individually
Word Study: Students continue to amaze me at the hard work they put into word study and how much they know about phonics and spelling rules. They will take their next word study test on Wednesday.
Have a wonderful weekend!
