Dear Parents, I hope you all have a wonderful week! Respectfully, Fallon Jones This week we are learning about… MATH- Place value- The students are composing numbers by using pictures. We are counting by 10’s to be more efficient and accurate. The students are composing and decomposing numbers. Example: If I give a student an amount of objects they will compose(build) the number by counting by 10’s and then combine the 10’s and 1’s to compose a number. If I give the students a number such as 54 they will tell me how many 10’s and 1’s are in the number to decompose (break apart). We will continue to spiral problem solving and telling time to the hour and half hour. Language Arts- We are working on non-fiction text features. Our high frequency words this week are: now, how, leg, ask. We are also working on ‘ow,ou’ words. In Writing we are learning about punctuation and capitalization. Science/Social Studies- We are learning about goods and services.
