Announcements:
Our Valentine's party was a ton of fun! The kids made some great boxes, and we all had a blast playing card and board games together. March is reading month, as always, and we will have an awesome calendar of activities to do all month long! It will be coming home next Friday, so be on the lookout for that. Our quiz on adding and subtracting mixed numbers was awesome! I keep telling the class how impressed I am with them, and you should know too. They're legitimately the best class I have ever had in terms of understanding fractions and how to add them. You will see the quiz in the Friday Folder. Reading: A key reading skill, especially today, is being able to read someone's opinion and determine what their reasons are, and what evidence they have. We spent this week reading kids' opinions on various questions and looking for their reasons and evidence. We will continue next week as well. Writing: We are still working on using vivid, interesting adjectives and adverbs this week. The kids wrote an advertisement for an animal shelter using some cool describing words today, be on the lookout for those! Math: Most of this week was working on adding and subtracting fractions, but we are now on to multiplying them! It's a big step, but we can do it! Social Studies: People are always moving, and for many different reasons. This week we took a close look at how and why people move around our country, and how we keep track of them! Science: A lot of pollution is made in the process of making food, but it's not like we can stop feeding ourselves! We are learning about the process of growing, transporting, and packaging food in order to try and think of inventions that might make the process easier, cleaner, or faster. Comments are closed.
