Here is a re-cap of our week. The students accomplished a ton in just three & a half days!
Math: Students worked on the commutative property. They used unifex cubes to build a number two different ways. They also spent time working with their addition facts of ten. We will talk about fact families next week.
Reading: I read another Strega Nona book, Strega Nona takes a Vacation. During centers, students worked on a Strega Nona story map, reviewed spelling words, and practiced their handwriting.
Writing: Students worked on their small moment story. We focused on using transitional words: first, next, then, and last.
Science: We began our science unit on the moon. I read, Kitten’s First Full Moon, to introduce the unit. The story is about a kitten who thinks the full moon is a bowl of milk. On Wednesday, I read the book, Possum’s Harvest Moon. We discussed what a harvest moon is and began to make harvest moon paintings. We will finish these beautiful works of art next week. Students will be bringing home a moon journal next week. They will be observing the moon for a month. I will send an additional e-mail with further details next week.
