Student Goals
I previously mentioned that your child and I would meet to talk about goals for the remaining school year. I am so proud of every student! They were so honest in their self reflection. We talked about ways that we could accomplish the goals we set, and what they are already well. I will copy them and send them home so you can talk at home also.
Reading and Writing
We are studying figurative language this month. This will help us study the meaning behind the author's word choice, take notes, create pictures in our minds, and applying this technique in our writing as we write letters about the books we read.
Science
We have been studying force and motion through manipulatives (dominoes), and play (exploring the playground). They've had fun learning words such as gravity, force, push, pull, and direction.
Social Studies
We ended last month with talking about important people in history such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. We will continue in February with Abraham Lincoln and George Washington as we get ready for President's Day.
