We have been busy this week!!! In MATH, we have been using place value to add and subtract to 100! We use tens and ones, we decompose numbers, we make tens. We work in small groups. I am so very pleased at the progress!
In COMMUNICATION ARTS, we have also been working hard. In SHARED READING/ SOCIAL STUDIES, we have been learning about main idea and import details while learning about our National Symbols. Mrs. Cohee is also working on this with us. In WRITING, we are working on Opinion writing. We are writing topic sentences, three supporting sentences, and a conclusion. We are trying to add adjectives to make our writing more interesting and conjunctions to combine two ideas. It is also good to work in pairs to edit and revise what we write. In SMALL GROUP PTR, this week we worked on reading. We are working on being fluent and expressive. We talk about what we read. In SPELLING, we worked on words with qu and x. In our GOOGLE CLASSROOM, we worked on spelling sentences and inserting images to match and to write our own sentences. We also practice our words on Spelling City. Next week, our spelling words will be: by my why yes yell try you and your. Why did you yell at my cat? I see your dog by the green rug.
We will have our Warm Fuzzy Party (our jar of compliments is filled to the brim!) on Wednesday. A note will go home Tuesday. Small stuffed animals, slippers, a small (really small) blanket, and a special snack can be brought to school that day.
Have a wonderful weekend! Mrs. C
