What Are We Up To In Room 115?
Math
This week we will finish our unit about the properties of addition and subtraction and really understand how these functions work together. Students will be receiving a study guide on Wednesday and will be tested on Friday.
Reading
We are continuing with personal narratives but will also be working on new reading skills. Students will be using their books to find moments when the characters have a memory or aha moment. We will try to figure out why these are important and the author's purpose for including them.
Writing
Students have begun to draft their personal narratives and share ideas with one another. Our focus this week will be on making catchy leads and adding sensory details to draw the reader into the story.
Social Studies
Students will begin to explore the purpose of communities and why citizens are important to a community.
