Science: We worked on science stations that were all about weather. We discussed different weather instruments and their purposes. I am super impressed with all of the good discussions we had!
Math: We finished up Chapter 3 by learning about how to interpret the remainder and solve multi-step word problems. Word problems continue to be a challenge for us so we will continue working on our problem solving strategies!
Writing: During writing this week we organized our notes into various categories and then used those notes to write our flashdraft of the first informational piece of this unit! The kiddos have been working extremely hard in writing and I am very impressed!!
Reading: We began our nonfiction unit and have been discussing how nonfiction texts become more complex as you get older. Some of the aspects we talked about were how a text could have more than one main idea, how the main idea can be hidden in a text, and how subheading can be misleading.
Social Studies: We are incorporating social studies into our writing unit because we are researching and writing about the American Revolution!
Upcoming Events:
10/19: Early Release (1:40 pm)
10/24 & 10/26: Parent-Teacher Conferences
I hope everyone enjoys their weekend!!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Holtmann
