Reading: We practiced the "th" sound. Our new reading groups started this week and it is going very well. The books are a bit harder, but everyone is excelling and working really hard!
Writing: We spent a lot of time this week on our Small Moment stories. We learned how to write The Outside story, what happened, and The Inside story, our thoughts and feelings. We practiced writing sentences that started with things like, "I wished..." "I remembered..." "I thought..." "I felt...." "I wondered..."
Math: We learned about tally charts and bar graphs this week. We continued to practice the use of different vocabulary that comes with analyzing graphs. These skills are getting a bit easier for everyone.
Social Studies: We learned about our value of the month, Kindness. We talked about examples of kindness and what it looks like.
Science: We started our experiment on plants. We talked about how to set up an experiment to test what will happen to a plant if it doesn't have some of things it needs for survival. The students came up with the idea to put one plant outside in the sun and give it water, and one plant in the closet with no water. We started this on Monday. We made predictions about what we thought might happen to each plant. Then on Thursday we made observations of the two plants and drew them out. Here are a few student work samples. We are being great scientists!
