Recap of this week/Looking Ahead

 This Week

This week my students were busy bees learning elements of the Daily 5!  They have been practicing their stamina on reading to themselves and reading with a buddy.  I am impressed with how they are progressing.  We learned lots of new and great vocabulary words and I taught the students strategies to determine the meaning of unknown words. They did a lot of responding to reading in their response journals.  

In math, my students took an Algebra Test which went home today.  Please sign and return the test by Wednesday.  

Next Week

My math class will begin the Place Value and Number Computation Unit which will last for approximately 3 weeks.  If you need another copy of a Parent Preview Sheet for the upcoming math units (whether your child is in my math class or not) jus tclick the link on the right side of the blog to find them!

In writing, we are beginning our unit on Personal Narratives.  We will spend a lot of time immersing the students into this genre of writing and going through the steps of the writing process. 

The Soil Unit will end next Friday.  


Have a nice weekend!
