What's My Child Learning This Week?
Reading-We continue reading Dig, Wait, Listen: A Desert's Tale. This week we focus on vocabulary development through word sorts. We revisit author's purpose; a more in-depth look at why author's write and what they are trying to tell us.
Math-We begin a two week unit on geometry! Student will learn shapes, solids, and their characteristics. They will also observe geometry in real-life situations.
Science-We begin a unit on animals/habitats! Students will learn about different animals and the biomes in which they live.
Writing- We continue with the writing process! Students are learning how to revise, looking to see how well a writer uses ideas and details in his or her writing!
