Academics:
Phonics: We are reviewing a lot of skills. This week we will be focus on syllable types. Closed syllables have one short vowel closed in by a consonant. An open syllable ends with a vowel that is long. Vowel team is a syllable that holds a vowel team.
Comprehension: We are continuing to look at non fiction stories and look at cause and effect. Cause is why something happened, while effect is what happened. I wore a raincoat because it was raining. The effect is me wearing a raincoat and the cause is because it is raining.
Writing: We are wrapping up our opinion paper about the best planet and will move to our next opinion piece. The students are really excited to share their paper with you!
Math: We are working on doubling facts and strategies. Students are working on showing their thinking during word problems.
Social Studies: We are going to focus on famous Americans and symbols. Next week we will be looking at the impact of the National Parks and the symbolism of the Statue of Liberty.
