It is hard to believe that we have only two weeks before spring break! In these next two weeks we will be finishing up with our current reading, writing, and math units so that when we come back from break we are ready to start our next units. In reading we are continuing to work on reading strategies and begin discussing book clubs and how we can work well together during these clubs.
In writing we will wrap up our small moment stories with the kids writing a final, best story. Their stories will include a great lead and ending with juicy details in the middle. Our next writing unit will be All About (non-fiction) books.
In math we are working on beginning to read picture graphs and using comparison bars. The kids are learning how to answer the questions: how many more? How many fewer? How many in all? Which has the most? Which has the fewest?
Just a reminder that the book fair will be open during conferences on Monday and Wednesday. I also sent home a book order form for you to place an order through if you would like.
Spring break is from Friday, March 30 - Sunday April 8.
Thursday, April 12 is a school skating party from 6:30-8:30.
I hope that you all have a great week!
