This week in Reading and Writing Workshop...
We are continuing our hard work on Chicken Research.  We will continue to learn about what Chickens need to live and begin to create presentations for the facts that we've gathered.  

This week in Science...
We will focus in on our Project Based Learning Goals for this Project.  We will design and create a habitat for chickens to live. First we will plan our habitats by drawing then we will take our ideas and make a model using the recycled materials we can gather from home! Send it everything you have!

This week in Math...
We are working with numbers and place value.  We will practice composing and decomposing numbers up to 120! We will examine patterns and build numbers with concrete tools as we shape our understanding!

This week in Social Studies...
We will read A Chair for My Mother.  Using this piece of literature we will discuss how families in our community have to make decision about how to spend, save and donate their money.  We will talk about the needs of families and the community.

This week’s Life Skill is Problem Solving- to find a solution to a big or small problem.
