This week the children will be introduced to the Poetry Binder. On Mondays the students will receive a new poem to study for the week. They will keep the poem in a poetry binder and bring it home on Monday to practice each night. On Friday the binder needs to come back to school as the children will get into small groups and perform their poem for the rest of the class. Children love to read poetry and it's a great way to increase reading fludency. Happy reading!!
In math this week we will learn how to weigh objects using nonstandard units, find a sum by counting on, make and read a bar graph, add 0 to a number, and take a math test.
The students from the Arts Integration class at SUU will return to our class on Tuesday to present a lesson on spiders. We will continue the study of spider this week by reading many spider books. Your child should be able to come home and tell you many interesting spider facts!
In art this week the students will create patterned owls using using oil pastels and watercolors. Their art will be on display in the hallway later this week. Last week we finish reading Mummies in the Morning. We also learned many facts about ancient Egypt and made our own pyramids. This week we will begin reading Pirates Past Noon!
