Reading: We will
finish our unit on Main Ideas and Key Details.
We will begin working on Earth Day books. We will use The Great Kapok Tree and The
Lorax. We will discuss what the big
picture is for these books. We will
learn how to infer and synthesize what the big ideas are in order to understand
what Earth Day is all about.
Math: We will learn about counting nickels by themselves, counting nickels and pennies together, ordering events by time and subtracting a number from ten.
Writing: We are in the process of publishing our Information Books! About half of the class has started typing their books this week. We will begin a new unit on Opinion Pieces! This is an exciting unit because students will begin writing about their favorite “collections”. Watch for a letter to come home to bring in their collections!
Social Studies/Science: We are working on Matter. We will be doing a few fun experiments on solids, liquids and gases. Please remember to bring in your designated donated items so that we can begin our experiments.
