Math
We are wrapping up our 3rd math unit by discussing more than and less than. Students are working to identify which group of objects has more or less. We are also describing which numeral is more than or less than the other. We have completed simple sentences such as ____ is more than _____. and _____ is less than ____. We have encouraged students to use these words to compare the quantities.
Reading
We are excited to be reading some simple books independently! Students have been very proud to show what they can read using the sight words, blending sounds in words, and using the pictures to help them figure out a word. We have been adding voice to our reading. We are working to smooth our the sentences in order to sound fluent when reading.
i-Ready Testing
The assessment window for the i-Ready winter benchmark is open this week and next week. This test is similar to the testing we did in the fall. It will allow us to see the growth students have made in reading and math as well as specific information about individual student needs and strengths. We have been pulling students in small groups to work on the test on our ipads.
