Last week got away from me and I forgot to update the blog, sorry about that. We had another week of many things going on.
In Science this week the students learned about animal and plant cells. They worked with vocabulary words and drew and labeled diagrams.
In Writer's Workshop this week the students were busy collecting synonyms using a thesaurus. They found synonyms for "talk/said", "hot", and "cold". We also talked about antonyms as well.
During Language Arts time the students have the routine of the Daily 3/4 down pat. Students built stamina in Read to Self, Read to Someone, Word Work, and Work on Writing. During Read to Someone students have been meeting in small groups and reading either Summer of Riley or Elijah. Ask your child what book they are reading and what is happening in the book. On Friday we went to our Kindergarten Buddies classroom to read to them.
In math the focus is on graphing and decimals. The students continue to work hard on learning new concepts.
Have a great weekend!!
We will be using this blog during the course of the year as a means to communicate all that is going on in the classroom. Students will be asked to complete assignments online and we will use the blog as the format for those assignments.
