THIS WEEK AT SCHOOL:
Math - This week we worked on 3 digit addition, completed POW #8, and also Study Island. Keep practicing those addition and subtraction facts.
Reading - We read a story called, The Gardener, and learned about cause & effect. We also focused on contractions. During Guided Reading we read our group books, and group novels. The students are enjoying these new novels.
Science/ SS - Our class learned about Consumers and Producers this week. We talked about many examples that we could see just looking out our classroom window.
Cursive - We learned the letter "r" this week.
Writing - We finished the rough draft of our 1st paper. All students have completed their 5 paragraphs. We will now move into the next step of our writing process; editing.
I hope to see everyone at conferences, and HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
