Happy Friday! I am
so happy to have every student’s family tree project. The trees will be
displayed around the classroom and the students will have a chance to look at everyone’s
work and do an activity. I will post pictures of the students and their trees
next week J
Here are some of
the things we have been working on:
In Math:
- Students learned addition and
subtraction have an inverse relationship
- Learned a new center game, “Try
Together”
- Used ten-frames to make 10 in order to
subtract numbers
- Answered multi-step word problems and
learned sometimes the answer to one problem or question is needed to find
the answer to another problem or question
In Reading
- Started Unit 4 FUNdations
- Introduced new trick words
- Students learned when to add suffixes
to a word; est, ed, es, s, ing, er
- Compared the two stories using a Venn
diagram
- Worked on TTQA (turning the question
around) to answer questions
In Science:
- Continued learning about evergreen and
deciduous trees
- Discussed parts of a tree

In Writing:
- Continued working on our “How to take
care of a dog” research project
- Went to the computer lab and took
notes on three different websites about dogs

names and starting to use descriptive writing to write about their monster
Have a great
weekend!
