Math, Science, and Social Studies
We will continuing working on our 3 facts in math fluency this week. This is where students begin to have more difficulty so please make sure they are working on these facts at home. Continue to work with your child on their math facts each night. The fact cards are in your child's pencil pouch. Also, continue to work on all previous facts: 2's, 10's, and 5's. We will have our accuracy check on the 3 facts this Friday.
Science-We will complete our Ducks Don't Get Wet unit on Tuesday. We have had a great time learning how ducks use the preening process to keep their feathers shiny and waterproof. We have also learned many interesting facts about all the different types of ducks, dabbling, migrating, upending, and behaviors that ducks have for survival.
Social Studies-We will begin Social Studies on Wednesday. We will begin with a map study learning about relative and absolute locations. We will make a physical map of Arkansas and find different places around Cabot on Google Maps.
Reading, Writing, and Word Study
Reading--We will look at characters actions and feelings, plotting a fiction story arc, developing ideas about characters, and making inferences. Late in the week we will prepare ideas with evidence for debating, and students will respond to a prompt on Google Classroom to present their debate.
Writing--We will examine complex characters, plot with a story arc, create scenes in our writing, and feeling and drafting the heart of the story. By the end of the week we will have made some good headway on our fiction stories.
