Howdy folks! There’s
what we’ve been doing in class this week:
Math
We’ve been reviewing various math concepts this week such as
using the double double strategy to solve multiplication problems dealing with
fours! We have also been practicing the operation of subtracting and using
different strategies to solve (such as decomposing, using base-10 blocks, or
trying out the standard algorithm with regrouping!)
Writer's Workshop
For Writer’s Workshop this week, we have been honing in our
text structures, specifically focusing in on sketches and labels and making
sure that our sketches and labels clarify information for the
reader! We’ve also been using the keyword strategy to summarize pieces of
information that we have read!
Reading
We’ve been reading Charlotte’s Web and honing our skills in
making inferences by locating signposts as we’re reading! During reading, we’ve also been practicing
our communication skills by getting into our book clubs and discussing the
inferences and connections we’ve made as we’re reading!
What else happened this week? Well, we had Science Lab with Mrs. Seachirst and had a lesson on physical change vs chemical change when dealing with various states of matter!
And today, we had a chance to hang out with our kinder buddies!
And that's a wrap folks! Cheers, and have an excellent Thursday!
