April 19-23
During our literacy skills block we will learn about the long e and long i sound associated with the finay -Y in words. Our spelling words are: city, rainy, lucky, tricky, pretty, why, shy, guy, sly, and fry.
Our high frequency words are: dance, around, open, ocean, talk, though, ever and else. We will also review base words and endings -ed and -ing. Our grammar skill for the week is learning when to use is and are in sentences.
Our guiding question in Readers' Workshop is: How does noting details help me to become a better reader? The students will practice paying attention to bits of information to help them to better understand their stories. We also will continue our Ezra Jack Keats' Author Study.
In Writer's Workshop we will continue making evaluative statements about books that we read or heard read to us. We will also learn how making connections to a story helps us to understand the characters and the story better.
In Math Skills Block we are working with place value. The students must identify tens and ones in a given number. In Math Workshop we are still solving combining and separating story problems. The students are developing strategies for solving and recording these problems by using number, pictures, words and equations. They will also become more familiar with combination of 10.
