This was a very rough week for our immune systems in our class. There were many students out sick. We have been cleaning and disinfecting the classroom. Hopefully this weekend was restful for everyone.
Math workshop
We will be ending unit 2 this week. I am planning for a test at the end of the week or beginning of the next week. It depends if students are grasping the ideas. We have learned a lot about pennies and nickels. Money is a hard concepts to understand, it will take lots of practice. We have practiced counting by fives and twos. You can check out some songs that are helpful in learning on the learning through songs page.
Writing workshop
We are going to be putting together our first story! It is going to be about SPIDER INVASIONS! We will be using our "writer's eyes" to help us look for capital letters at the beginning of the sentence, lowercase letters through out, spaces between words and end marks at the end of the sentence.
Reading Workshop
We will start our guided reading groups at the end of this week or the beginning of next week. We are really getting into our journey as a reader. We will be focusing on one comprehension strategy at a time to help students become stronger readers.
Science
We have been keeping track of the weather ever since the beginning of school. We track the temperature, what kind of weather and as the months pass we check out if we are noticing any patterns.
