What's up in Room 82 this week?
We will practice using a variety of strategies including:
A game called subtraction smash that looks like this:
Drawings and math mountains
Using tools such as bead racks, math manipulatives or number lines
Using cut out hands to show the equations
These are great ways to practice any equations that your child may be working on!
Reading: Readers reread for many reasons! They read the first time to solve tricky words. They can read a book again to make their reading smooth. Then, they can read it a third time to post it funny, interesting, or important parts that they would like to share with their partner. Your reader will be creating a video to show you how they use rereading in their books! Check out the videos on Seesaw on Thursday!
Writing: Our persuasive writing is coming to a close this week and these writers have become so convincing! They have been working on writing their opinions about problems they see in the world. To celebrate Earth Day and the end of our unit, students will be creating posters that show lots of writing about a problem. It could be littering, cutting down trees, wasting electricity, etc. We will share our opinion posters with Mrs. Hixon's class on Friday!
Science: This will be the last week of our weather watching unit! We will explore how the sun heats up different surfaces like concrete, grass, rocks and mud. We will also do some close reading on different types of weather.
