Welcome back!!! Here's a brief look at what we are doing in the classroom. :)
Math– We are working on place value, addition & subtraction (to
the thousands) and estimation. Our class will also work on comparing numbers.
Mental math will be a skill we introduce later in the unit.
Reading– We have learned how to choose a ‘just right book.’ Next
week, we will start learning about Daily 5 and how we will use this in our
classroom. Our main focus for the week will be: main idea & details,
narrative writing, and complete sentences. We will also begin doing word sorts,
but our different groups will be at different levels of word sorts. (Will be
disucussed at Open House.)
Science– We will begin looking at the different habitats of
Georgia. The children will learn the different types of animals and plant life
that are native to each habitat. The first habitat we will take a look at, is
the mountain habitat. If you have any pictures from the mountains that show an
animal or the plant life in that habitat and want to send them in, we would LOVE
to share them. We will also look at the Piedmont, and Coastal Plains.
