What is happening in RM 16?
Week of August 28th
Reading:
Focus Skill: Identify Main Idea and Supporting Details
We will begin reading groups this week!! These are flexible groupings and can change throughout the school year. Please make sure your child is reading each night. One way you can support our learning is by asking your child to tell you the Main Idea of the chapter(s) they read that night and ask for some details to support what they say! :)
Writing:
Genre: Personal Narratives
We will begin our spelling groups this week as well! I will place some ideas on how to practice with them at home inside of one of the clear page protectors. They will keep their lists for 2 weeks. Spelling can be practiced on Spelling City (sort is listed on their weekly snapshot).
Math:
Focus Skill: Reading, Writing, and Comparing Numbers within 10,000.
You can work on this at home by saying a number to your child and having them write it down. Then give them another number and have them compare the two...add them... or subtract them. :)
On Wednesday, we will have a math guru from New York City, Kara Imm, in OUR classroom teaching a lesson to the kiddos!! I am so excited to see what we can learn from her. I know that I will be a better teacher because of it and your child will walk away a different learner!
