First Week of October!!!

I can't believe we have already been in school for 27 days.  We have entered the month of October and it is busy!! This week we will be starting a few new things that I'm excited for to start. 

We will be starting a new Reading and Writing series. In this series, there are a lot of vocabulary words with some strong description every week!

In Reading, we will be working through the books McDuff Moves In and There's an Ant in Anthony. In these stories, we will be discussing story elements such as character, settings, and plot.  We will be working with 4 vocabulary words; tumble, swirl, compassionate, and content.  We will also review short vowel words.

In Writing, we will be looking at our past writing experiences.  We will be looking at getting ideas from things around us and our own drawings. We will be also working on sharing to others using eye contact and presentation voices. We will finish off the week discussing how authors get a lot of their ideas from real life.

In Social Studies, we will work on continents/oceans, moving into landforms, and our community from our world magnified into our neighborhood.

In Math, we will finish off our mini unit of time.  The kiddos have worked really hard with being able to slowly tell time to 5 minutes. We will then go into our second unit pretest of addition and subtraction.
