A Peek At The Week
-In reading we are continuing to switch to our leveled reading groups. Students are participating in small group instruction and independent work time.
-During math we will continue practice with number bonds and identifying the parts and whole. This week we will focus on solving problems with a missing part. Students are working on their math fluency by knowing what parts make a whole. For example knowing 5+5, 6+4, 7+3 all equal 10.
-Writing time will be used on writing a story on something that each likes to do with a friend. Students will work hard to create a 4 Star story! Which includes neat handwriting, finger spaces, capitals, periods, and a neat illustration.
-During our Core Knowledge time we will continue our unit on Animals and Habitats. This week students will learn about the Deciduous Forest and Rainforest habitats
