2/13

I am not sending home reading homework today. So many people are going out of town or have family events this weekend. I want everyone to enjoy the long weekend so NO READING HOMEWORK.

Phonics: We will be looking at vowel-consonant-e.... most people know this as magic e! For example, bake, ride, chase, nine. The e makes the previous vowel say it's long sound or its name. Most students have already picked up on this when reading but this will now be explicitly taught to the class. 

Comprehension: We are going to blend that last few weeks lessons all together. We will look at the characters emotions, mental state, and motivations to help us understand the character better. The students have excelled in this area.

Math: We will start looking at simple fractions. We will look at splitting a pizza or sandwich in half or into fourths. That is as far as we will explore with fractions. We will still be exploring our 2d and 3d shapes. Math homework will come home on Wednesday pages 81 and 82.

Social studies: We will continue to explore Black History! This week we have already discussed Ruby Bridges and Jackie Robinson. Students were blown away by Ruby's perseverance and courage!

Spring Break: March 23-27 No School! Please let me know if you will be missing any days before or after spring break!
