I cannot believe that next week is our fourth week of school already!
Couple of Reminders: 
- Picture Day is this Wednesday, August 24th! Please send back forms to Order!!
- Please respond in your child’s Family Journal and send back Monday.
- Please send in your “Page of Pictures” on Monday if you haven’t yet for our Writers’ Workshop.
Math: We wrapped up our unit on Number Sense to 120 and will start our Addition Unit Monday. We will work on strategies such as using a number line and manipulatives, as well as counting on. I will also spiral back to number sense, place value and counting up and down by 10’s, for review.
Reading: We finished learning about Eagle Eye, Chunky Monkey, Skippy Frog, Flippy Dolphin and Stretchy Snake. Students all received a bookmark with these strategies on it. This week we will be delving into characters, setting and illustrations!
Writing: We will continue with our Writer’s Workshop. Our minilessons this week will focus on spelling strategies and we will start using our Classroom Word Wall.
Phonics: We will continue acquiring new l-blend and r-blend words.
S.T.E.M. We will continue focusing on Creativity and the importance of being able to look at things differently, i.e. thinking of new purposes for items.
Social Studies– Students used clues to deduce that our new unit will be about Landforms! This week we will continue working on our flip books about mountains, valleys, plains, plateaus, coasts. If you have any pictures or stories involving your family members and Landforms, can you please share them with your children this weekend and send them in on Monday?
Enjoy your weekend with your sweet children!
