Language Arts/Reading Update
We're off to a great start in Language Arts learning about Author's Purpose! Students will read and comprehend a variety of texts written for different purposes; to persuade, to inform, or to entertain. They will also communicate ideas effectively in writing and orally to suit a particular audience and purpose.
Books in a Bag Coming Home Soon!
Be on the lookout for your kiddo's "book in a bag" to start coming home soon! One the night the book in a bag is sent home you'll see a lime green sheet with at home work and a parent signature. Please sign the sheet and return the entire book in a bag the next day!
Math Update
We're starting a new unit in math; Addition and Subtraction to 20! Students will use their number sense to be fluent in their understanding of numbers, relationships, and how they are used in everyday life. Be sure to look for ways students can use math at home! They will also be able to solve problems in everyday life by applying their understanding of numbers and operations.
Science and Social Studies Update
In social studies students are learning to participate as an informed citizen of a democracy. We'll keep discussing characteristics of good citizenship and how they can apply that to school.
