I hope you had a great weekend and were able to stay dry. This morning we shared about our weekend and despite the gloomy weather, we all had something fun to share!    We did a fun activity where we worked on focusing our attention on the speaker while we shared. See if your child can remember some of the activities students in our class shared. ( some examples are: Andy went to church, Bradley lost a tooth Farrah went to Barnes and Nobles. . . . )

Here is our week of learning at a glance: 

Reading Workshop-This week we will look at story elements while reading. We will focus on characters, setting, problem, and solution.  We will also focus on key events that happen at the beginning, middle, and end of a story. 

Writing Workshop-   We will continue to focus on writing our personal narratives and we will begin writing with our writing partner. 

Science/ Social Studies-     This week we will focus on physical properties in science.  We will discuss physical properties and use physical properties to complete various experiments. 

 
Math-   This week we will wrap up our unit on the hundreds chart and focus on ordering numbers on a number line. We will also discuss greater than, less than, and equal.  

Important News:   If you have extra earbuds or earphones for your child to use at school, please send them in.  We only have 8 headsets in our class and we have many apps that involve sound. We will keep the earphones in a bag labeled with your child's name.   

Thanks for sending in STEAM supplies.  Please keep the supplies coming since we will do a STEAM activity  every Friday. We are in need of 3M blue painter's, toilet paper rolls, and paper towel rolls. THANKS for your help!


Class Celebrations:    We want to wish Kysen  a very Happy Birthday!  He celebrates his birthday on Wednesday!  We want to say congratulations to Bradley!  He lost a tooth this weekend!
 Have a great week!
