A Note From Mrs. Waters
It was great to have a full week of school and be back in the routines. Ms. Madiha, our new assistant, started with our class this week and is a wonderful fit.
Next week we will be starting a new reading unit, so please read the attached parent unit letter. The unit letter also tells about our next writing unit which we will begin in two weeks. We will be reading lots of nonfiction books before we write informational books.
Reading
Students will be immersed in nonfiction books this week. They will be sorting our nonfiction book by topic instead of level and reviewing how to pick a "Just Right" book.
Writing
Math
Students will be continue to measure objects using non-standard units. They will also collect, sort, and organize data, then ask and answer questions about the number of data points on a chart.
