* Dec. 20 Early Out (1 hr.)
Notes:
*This week we started word journeys with students. Students received a list of words on Monday that was sent home. There is no spelling contract with these words. We have been practicing using these words during our word work time. Students were tested on these words on Friday.
Things to Work on:
*Sight words
* Read Hawk books. We encourage your child to read or be read to every night.
What we have been up to:
Reading: We read the big book A Friend for Little Bear and talked about the story structure (characters, setting, events, problem, solution). The story map in their Hawk bag is an example of story structure. We also talked about making predictions. Our skill this week was on long /a/ a_e.
Math: We are continuing our study on place value with teen numbers. We practiced adding two digit numbers.
Science: This week we learned about the vocabulary words: force, push, pull, gravity, and friction. We also learned about simple machines. We talked about pulleys, levers, and ramps. Look around your home and have your child find some examples of these.
