We will also be studying compound words and multiple meaning words. Our high frequency words for this week are: any, idea, bear, follow, please, were, tall, water, afraid and most. In Readers' Workshop our guiding question is..How does sequencing events help me to become a better reader?
We are finished gathering our information for our animal reports and today we came up with a topic sentence for each of our chapters of our report. Next the students will begin writing their final drafts and add diagrams and pictures.
In Math we are playing several games that help the students to deepen their understanding of number and number relationships. This week we are focusing on combinations of 10 ( 7 + 3 ; 2 + 2 + 6 ; etc). In Math Skills Block we will be practicing telling time to the hour and half hour.
In Science we will be exploring the question, What do animals and plants need to survive?.
