This week has started
off pretty differently, but we’re settling in now that I’m back! Here’s what we’re doing this week:
Christian Studies:
This week in Christian Studies we’ll be learning about some of the prophesies
of Jesus and God’s promise of a savior.
We’ll also learn about John the Baptist and how he prepared the way for
Jesus.
Math:
This week in math we’re taking apart numbers (“decomposing”) in order to add
and subtract more easily. We’ll be using
what we know about adding and subtracting, as well as tens and ones, to
solidify these mental math strategies and help us add and subtract quickly and
accurately.
Language Arts:
With me being gone the first two days of the week, we’ll be postponing our phonics
concept until next week. We will be looking
at informational text and reading it closely to pick out details and clues that
help us better understand the text. We’ll
also be writing about our reading.
Social Studies:
We started our unit on North America this week.
We began by looking at the countries in North America, as well as the
types of water and landforms in North America.
Science:
We’ll start off our science unit about finding the best place for a plant to
grow by reviewing science safety and decorating our workbook covers. We’ll do a pre-assessment to find out what
the students already know about plants and what they need to grow, then we’ll
build off of that information as we go through the unit.
