This week in Math, students used scales to explore a new type of measurement—weight! They compared objects to other objects and to cubes, while also practicing counting and writing numbers. They also enjoyed playing games like Sparkle, Snake, and Strike Me Out.
In Literacy, we explored 6-, 8-, and even 100-legged critters, diving into our reading and pulling out fascinating facts along the way. During our small group work, some are working on silent e/long vowel words while others are practicing digraphs and cvc words.
In ECO, students listened attentively to a puppet show about an insect's life cycle and then went exploring for them in the forest.
In Writing, we began a mini poetry unit, experimenting with lyrical, rhyming, and colorful language. As usual, this group amazed me with their imaginative creations!
Lastly, please remember that we have entered tick season. Please check your child daily for ticks, as we will be spending more time outdoors. Unfortunately, we are unable to supply or apply tick repellent or sunscreen at school, so we ask that you apply these at home before your child arrives if you wish.
