Weekly News:
Math: We will be solving for the unknown variable in subtraction problems, i.e. 14-?=6. Please work on those subtraction flashcards at home!!!!

Reading: We will be reviewing their ability to retell stories and their ability identify the central message.  Please remember,  as part of the homework every night, students have to complete a reading log sheet in their homework notebooks that helps them to use these skills at home. Those reading skills will be on there this week!

Writing: We will continue working on our opinion pieces, making sure that we include an opening sentence, supporting reasons and a closing sentence. They all did an amazing job at this this week!

Phonics: This week we will be learning about making the Long O sound by using the letters “ow” as in row, “oe” as in toe, “old” as in gold and “oa” as in coat. We will have a spelling test on Friday :).

Science: Students were introduced to Light and Shadows. We will continue learning about the different sources of light and how and why shadows are formed.

S.T.E.M.  This week we start planning our next STEM activity which is creating a shadow puppet. This will incorporate all that they are learning about light and shadows

I hope that everyone has a fantastic week!

GO FALCONS!!! Rise Up!!
