November 15th
We have been so busy this last couple of weeks!
Last week we started our book clubs. Some of the jobs we have during our book clubs are the character trait, summarizer, questioner, predictor, and word wizard. The students are doing a great job during their book discussions. We should be finished with the book "Jake Drake Bully Buster" by the beginning of next week.
This week in math we began solving word problems using bar models. These word problems are multi-step. Bar models are a very good visual for students.
Next week we will finish up our personal narratives in writing. Every child will have one story that was taken through the writing process by the end of next week. The next writing unit we will begin is poetry.
Last week we had our Veteran's Day Assembly. Carter did an amazing job assisting Mrs. Costa!
This week we had an author come to our school and speak with us! Ask you child what they learned! Today Mrs. Rec's Aunt came in to speak with us about being a veteran. The students were excellent listeners.
