Social Studies
We will begin to study geography.
Math
Chapter 1 math tests will be coming home. We have been working on mastering any areas that needed further practice.
Currently, we are working on multiple strategies for addition and subtraction.
Reading
Last week we began talking about the four elements of reading: accuracy, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. In order to say that we are "reading," we must incorporate all of these elements into our reading simultaneously.
Writing
Author Chair began last week. Throughout the week students will be invited to the author's chair. Our class will celebrate each other's writing and what we are doing well. Student writing focuses on three main areas this school year: narrative, informational, and opinion.
