Math (Written by, Gaith)
We learned after zero comes minus zero. We have writing goals and reading goals and math goals. Our math goals are add fluently to ten or twenty, subtract fluently to ten or twenty, place value to 1,000, and telling time to 5 minutes. We have our first math test next week!

Writing (Written by, Ethan)
Dear Students and Teachers,
In writing we have been doing are personal narratives. It has been a fun time in Miss Tigges's class. Personal narrative means that we are bringing in pictures to write about a memory we have.
Reading (Written by, Johan)
In reading we have been doing stamina. We met our 20 minute reading goal! We have been woking on story elements (problems and solution, characters, setting, plot, and conclusion) and reading the whole time. We also have talked about fiction and non-fiction books.
Social Studies (Written by, CeCe)
We have been studying our world and cultures and where we come from. We have been learning about dances around the world and in different states and countries.
Specials (Written by, William)
In P.E., we run, play games, and do push ups and pull ups. We play funnel tag, freeze tag, and zoo tag!
Dot Day Fun! (Written by, Miss Tigges)
Our class had a wonderful Dot Day celebration this week! We talked about ways we each will make our mark at Woodland Hills throughout the year and brainstormed ways we can all be leaders. We decorated our very own special dots, signed our name, and added them to the school display outside the art room. We even got to participate in a LIVE STREAM video with Peter Reynolds, the author of the book, The Dot! We look forward to continuing our conversations about making a mark this year! :)
