Hello Families,
This next week, there no school on Monday, Feb. 18. On Tuesday, we have our math festival from 11:50-12:30. We still need some volunteers to help out with the math centers.
We will continue learning about presidents and our country. Also, we will start discussing dental awareness for February! Please encourage students to brush teeth, floss and eat healthy foods. We continue our biography study in RTI as well as in talking about autobiographies.
In Writers Workshop, we will be finishing up our "How to" books and be celebrating our stories on February 27th. We will be reading them with our buddies on Friday, March 1.
In Readers Workshop, we are talking about reading with fluency not robot reading. When reading at home try to help them with reading for fluency with our take home books. If students still continue to sound out the words have them repeat the sentence with fluency for understanding. Please remind them that reading is for understanding/comprehending not just able to read the words. Some students need to slow down with returning the take home books until they master fluency and comprehension.
Word Wall words: will, come
Students are showing so much interest in donating to "Pennies for Patients". So proud of these students for giving their money for research to help other children. All money due Friday, February 22.
In Math, we will continue with subtraction and addition with word problems. We will start having them come up with their own word problems to solve and share. We will have different types of math games using positional words, and money recognition.
Have a great weekend!!
Ms. Werner
