This week in Reading Workshop...
We will begin our unit on making inferences. We will practice making inferences like,
"This boy is wearing a coat, mittens and a hat. I can infer that the weather is...COLD!" We
will transition to making inferences about the stories we are reading together
as a class when we introduce Literary Nonfiction.
This week in Writer's Workshop...
We will learn about different types of letters we can write. We've been writing Friendly Letters. We will learn about Thank you letters, apology
letters and persuasive letters. We will talk
about when you use each type of letter and practice writing them!
This week in Math...
We will begin our unit on Doubles. We will play
games, sing songs and learn strategies to help us memorize our doubles facts
(2+2=4). Then we will apply what we've
learned and use our doubles to help us solve problems and other math facts (if
2 +2 = 4 then 2 + 3 = 5 it's
just one more).
This week in Science...
We will begin our study of Objects in the Sky. We will learn about the objects we see in the sky
during the day (sun and clouds). We will learn
about the night sky features such as the moon, stars and planets). We will focus on how the day and night skies
change. We will continue our learning
when we begin our guided research unit in reading and writing workshops.
The weather looks like it will warm up again this week! Enjoy some
time outside before it gets cold again!
