We will begin a new author study this week. We will be reading Amelia Bedelia stories by Peggy Parish. First graders love how silly Amelia Bedelia is! We always have a good laugh with these stories.
In math, we will finish our unit on Geometry. Students will complete a Geometry Tic-Tac-Toe assessment, as well as a traditional assessment. Our next unit will be on Money and Fractions. Look for a parent letter to come home.
We are moving along in Writing Workshop. We are working on organizing our stories and having our voice come through. This week we should be able to share completed stories.
Our Science unit will focus on rotational motion this week. We will be making tops and zoomers.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Pennies for Patients. We collected (and counted!) over $45.00 in coins! Thanks for the contributions for the Math-a-Thon too. The students feel very good about helping others.
Have a good week!
