We had another exciting week in Room 205! The students have been working hard and have done a wonderful job displaying the King Core Values. Weekly Updates: Reading In reading this week, we continued to practice the routines of reading workshop and how to build our reading stamina. We also used sticky notes as a tool to write down our thoughts while reading. Over the next few weeks I will be working with individual students to assess their reading levels. Math The math lessons this week had a strong focus on adding and subtracting using number bonds. Fact fluency has allowed students to be successful in this module. Although we practice basic addition and subtraction facts in school each day, I ask that you continue to practice math facts at home! Writing This week, we began brainstorming ideas for our “small moment” stories. Students will be writing about an important moment in their lives while using a lot of detail. Next week, I will be sending home Tiny Topics journals for students to brainstorm more ideas at home. Science What is a scientist? What do scientists study? These are questions that we began exploring in science this week. I am excited to begin learning about experiments next week! Social Studies The first Social Studies unit focuses on communities. Students learned that a community is a place where people live, work, and play. Students worked in groups to sort pictures into each category! We have also discussed ways to make our classroom a loving community. Family Journals Today, we wrote our second entry in our Family Journals. As a reminder, students are encouraged to share their journals with their families on the weekend, and then bring them back to school on Mondays. I ask that parents either sign the letters or write a letter back to their child. I loved reading the entries from last week! Thank you for your support! Friendly Reminders
Happy Friday! Miss Boudrow
