Parents,
Please take a moment to view the other tabs, as most have been updated with important information; Supplies, Important dates, etc.
Today a bunch of math papers are going home; skip counting by 5's, 10's, and 100's and Addition through 20 facts. Please review these math concepts with your child. They can easily be embedded into your nightly homework routine by asking 5 addition, 5 subtraction facts, etc.
Today we also worked on reading a story and going back into the text to find the text evidence. We did this 100% together. We found the answers and formed the sentences together. I am teaching them how to find text evidence by modeling every step along the way. We will do several together before they are expected to complete on their own. Today's story was about the desert. I am going to look them over and will send them home this week.
We have started our pumpkin exploration and will be continuing throughout the week. We have also been comparing and contrasting and writing about our pumpkins. Tomorrow we will tie in math and be estimating with lengths, weights and counting seeds. We will also be making scientific predictions...do they sink or float, etc.? As soon as we are done, we will be placing our work on the bulletin board outside of our classroom. I will take a photo and share when this is complete!
If your child is not going to be here on Friday, please let me know and I can give them their spelling test of Thursday instead of waiting over the 3 days until Monday.
Have a great week!
Mrs. LeBourveau
