End of the year curriculum
Math-This week will conclude our Measurement Unit. After that, we will be giving a unit on graphing and data. The children will be solving simple addition and subtraction problems through the use of their data collection.
Social Studies-We are finishing the year with our Wheaton History Unit in preparation for our Wheaton Field Trip.
Science-The children have had a very interactive Plant Unit! They have experienced the process of growing a bean plant and grass as little gardeners. The unit will conclude with an exciting field trip to the Children's Garden at the Morton Arboretum.
Writing-For our last writing unit, the children will be writing a Narrative incorporating Time-Order words and focusing on one event in time.
