Winter Break Challenge
Next week, I will send home the "Winter Break Challenge". This is not meant to be daunting, serious, or involve a lot of rules. Rather, the goal is to keep students reading and writing in FUN ways. From reading in your PJs to sending an email to me, I have included many opportunities for your family to "sneak" in some literacy moments. This will be inside your child's book bag NEXT week.
Math
Students started a new unit this week. We introduced number lines and had fun playing some games to become comfortable jumping forward and backward on a number line. We will continue adding and subtracting using the number line next week.
ELA
In phonics, students worked on the soft c and soft g sounds. They were also introduced to their new differentiated word sort. In writing, we will be working on a personal narrative on a time where we saved and spent money. We will also be writing about the gingerbread houses we create. Stay tuned to Seesaw for many pictures.
