Reminder
Week - At - A - Glance
- Renaming numbers (if you are curious, check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAWyvnYbDtw)
- Adding whole numbers (using place value to know when to regroup) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAvuom42NyY
ELA -
- Reading - we are working on applying our story elements to texts by identifying the characters, setting, conflict, and theme by using plot. We are discussing specific text clues that help us understand the characters, conflict, and plot. The text clues will lead us into creating inferences (text + thinking = inference).
- Writing - we backed up a little and focused on getting ideas on paper and choosing a story we love. On Monday, we will finalize a story that we will take through the writing process.
- Grammar - we have been learning about dialogue and how characters use dialogue to speak in stories. (It is also used if you refer to written words.)
Science
- Collaboration - participating together, by adding ideas, on the same goal and making sure your group understands.
