Well time is definitely flying by! We have been so busy wrapping up first quarter and trying to get as much done in this three-day week as possible, that I have forgotten to update about things. Here are some tidbits about each subject over the last week or so.....
Reading- We have continued to work on sequencing stories during listen to reading, guided reading, and our own personal reading time. It has become easier for us to decide what the beginning, middle, and end is with all of the practice!
Fundations- Our class is now working through unit 4 which focuses on adding suffixes to base words. While this was a little confusing at first, we seem to get better each day. The suffixes we know so far are: -ing, -s, -es, -ies, -ed. Be sure to work on the take home packets over a two-week span.
Science- We are wrapping up solar systems with Mrs. Schulz this week and moving onto a new science/social studies teacher soon. We have learned many fascinating facts about the solar system and seem to want to learn more and more! *Check out our Kid Blog to see all of the great information we know!*
Writing- Our second personal narratives are complete and have been placed in our writing binders! For this personal narrative, we had to think of a small moment that gave us a big feeling. Some stories were about being excited about a new sibling while others were about being nervous for a recital. They all turned out fabulous!
Math- We are working very hard to become more independent with counting money and writing it correctly. Telling time to the nearest five-minute is our other main focus over these next few weeks. Both of these skills can be practiced at home easily.
