March Curriculum Update
Reading Workshop
We have also been doing a "Reading Workshop Refresh" the past week and a half to review some key skills and strategies to help us be successful in reading.
Writing Workshop
As we have done all year, we will continue to use a mentor text to teach us effective writing and practice different techniques. We will also analyze sample writing, work with a Writing Buddy, and produce drafts of our writing.
Math
Even though we move on multiplication and division we're going to continue to practice the facts in class. It is important that the students continue to practice the facts at home. We have used the "funbrain math arcade" as well as multiplication.com to practice our facts in class and the students can play these games at home as well!
Social Studies
We are going to introduce ourselves to Asia next week and spend the rest of the month familiarizing ourselves with the countries, geography, and next adventure in the world's biggest continent.
