Week of 9/19/2016

Ahoy!

We are off to a great start to the week! Students walked in the door ready to read. I love starting the morning with some quiet reading time. Here is the plan for the week!

Reading: We are continuing to look at how characters drive a story. Tomorrow we will begin reading The Case of the Gasping Garbage as a class. This is a very fun and silly book that allows students to see how a character can change the direction of the story. Be sure to check in with your student each night to see what is happening in the story.

Writing: Students are going to continue working on generating ideas while writing. They are working on using their five senses to recount a story. They are also continuing to work on the idea of writing a narrative.

Math: This week students will continue exploring patterns. We will be looking at patterns in subtraction and reviewing some subtraction strategies. We will be continuing to work on our strategies for addition and subtraction. On Wednesdays we will focus on problem solving.
