This week in math we will be continuing to practice addition and subtraction strategies. Students are also practicing finding the missing addend or subtrahend. This is a problem such as: 4 + ___ = 12 or 12 - ____ = 4. We will wrap up unit 5 this week.
In phonics all students received their new word sort today, as well as a new homework menu. Please remember your child should complete at least one spelling activity each evening. I will collect the spelling homework each Friday.
We are continuing to focus on opinion writing during our writer's workshop time. This week we began to write book reviews. Ask your child what favorite book they are writing about. Mine is Diary of a Worm!
In science we are continuing to learn about animal groups and their characteristics. Last week we learned about mammals and fish. This week we will learn about birds, insects, reptiles, and amphibians.
