Spring break is next week, and we have lots of fun things happening this week!
Publishing a Book!
We’ll be sending in our book to be published this week! The kids worked hard on writing their page on
what they would do if they had unlimited money, and they all put a lot of
thought and effort into their picture to go with their writing. We should be receiving them a few weeks after
spring break.
Read In!
This Friday, March 28 is our Read In!
This is a fun day that Kindergarten through 2nd grade does
that focuses on reading activities. The
students will get to wear pajamas, and they’ll get to bring a blanket, a
stuffed animal, and a pillow. We’ll end
with the movie Moana 2. Please
let me know if you do not want your child watching the movie in class so I can
come up with an alternate activity for them to do.
Math:
This week in math we’ll be finishing up our module on subtracting three-digit
numbers. We’ll focus on regrouping in
subtraction when we have zeros, and then we’ll relate addition to subtraction.
Language Arts:
This week’s spelling concept is other uses for silent e. We’ll talk about some of the reasons we put a
silent e at the end of words, including after an “s” when it says /s/ or /z/ at
the end of a word. It can also help distinguish
between homophones (i.e., teas vs. tease).
Words in the English language also don’t end in “j” or “v,” so a silent
e is used (i.e., have, dodge, page).
We’ll also start
reading a new informational text. We’ll
discuss the features of informational text and we’ll pick apart a new text
about gardening.
Social Studies:
We’ll start a new unit on America’s Beginnings.
We’ll learn about American Indians and some of the explorers who settled
in America. We’ll discuss the history of
our country and some of the people who helped shape our country.
