Happy Friday!! I hope everyone had a wonderful week!
Writing: In writing this week we have worked on several strategies for planning out our realistic fiction stories. We picked a seed idea and then created story arcs to show how the story will. We have been working really hard on our writing stamina and we are close to having 30 minutes of writing during our writing workshop!
Reading: In reading this week we have been focusing on reading characters by their words, actions, and by using the setting. We also practiced retelling by using chronological retelling and synthesizing.
Math: During math workshop this week we started our first chapter on place value. We have been working on ordering and comparing multi-digit numbers, using expanded, standard, and word form, and rounding to the nearest place value. We will continue working on place value during the beginning of next week. There will be information sent in an email about their upcoming math test.
Science: This week in science we have been focused on living organisms. We have talked about classifying plants and animals. We have also begun discussing how plants and animals adapt to their environment and use their surroundings to survive.
Reminder: No School on Monday, Sept. 7
I hope that you have a great three day weekend!
Sincerely,
Miss DiFranco
