"ZavTop4" Weekly Happenings!
October 9, 2017
Week In Review!
Reading: We are focusing on "Reading like Writers" to gain insight and ideas for our narratives. In our independent reading block, students are tuning in to the characters from their books and are thinking about their traits and motivations to help develop their own characters for their writing piece!
Math: We're continuing to practice our skills in place value and number forms. We'll be finishing our assessment this week!
We're looking for several decks of cards for our math rotations if you have any to spare we'd love to take them off your hands!
Writing: We have been working on developing our seed stories and creating a main character! (See advice for developing character sheet below)
WtW: Our spelling program is called "Words their Way" which is an approach to spelling that emphasizes patterns and spelling rules in a sorting routine. Students will have expectations on sort routines each week. Stay tuned for more information Monday!
S.S. Students are learning about the bill to law process this week!
