What is happening in RM 16?
Week of September 17th
Writing: What a great group of writers we have in the class! They catch on to things very quickly and we are ready to learn about adding commentary to our details!! For some kids, this is a natural thing that happens when they write. For others, they need time to stop and think about what to add on to their detail to make it stronger. I can't wait to see how they do with this!
Math: This week, we will be working on subtraction. I will be teaching the kids a variety of strategies to build their understanding. In the end, the traditional algorithm is our goal but we want them to understand the WHY behind it. They can use these alternative strategies for as long as it takes them to "get it".
Good websites for math practice:
Freckle- class code: jackmn
Social Studies: Your child will start seeing Mrs. Feilner beginning tomorrow. They will be bringing a family tree that will need to be completed and sent back to school. They will use these to share with the class where their ancestors came from. It will be due next Monday, September 24th.
