We will read books by Marcus Pfister this week, and focus on theme and meaning.
Writing
Using Marcus Pfister books as a guide, we will write a story that teaches a lesson. Students will write two endings for their story - one where the main character makes a good choice and one where the main character makes a bad choice.
Math
Students will apply fact strategies to add and subtract within 20. We will also review the five thinking patterns used in problem solving: some & some more, some went away, bigger-smaller-difference, equal groups put together, and equal groups taken apart.
Science & Social Studies
We will explore how different animals are classified this week.
