November 26-30

Wow!  It seems like it has been forever since I've been able to post.  It seems like everyone is getting well though.  Lets keep our fingers, toes, and eyes crossed that things stay that way!

Writing Workshop:
This week in Writing Workshop, we will be writing friendly letters.  We will explore and discuss the different parts of a letter as well.

Words Their Way:
Green:  ap and ag word families (nap, flag)

Red:  Short vowels before nt, nd, and nk

Reading Workshop:
This week, we will be introducing Envisioning.  This is when a reader pictures something from the book in their mind.

Math:
We will be learning about money.  We will discuss the characteristics and values of each coin.
