This Week's Highlights

Classes are in full swing here in room 20.    Here is a quick look at our week.

We started our small group reading on Monday.  All of our books are about the immigrant experience in the U.S.  Students are still learning about character development by tracking how the main character changes throughout the story.  We ended this week with a C.A.T. (Connect Across Texts) discussion.  Students had a chance to meet with other reading groups to discuss similarities and differences in their readings. 

Unit 1 math tests went home today.    Our newest unit covers estimation and computation.  Students will review addition and subtraction of multi-digit numbers and practice multiplying whole numbers and decimals in this new unit. 

In TCI we are starting a new unit on Native Americans and how they adapted to the various environments of North America.  We will investigate how early Americans used the resources around them to find food and shelter.

We ended today down in Mrs. Hall's kindergarten room.  Every student in our class has a  kindergarten buddy.  Throughout the year, our class will help these young learners with literacy and small writing projects the first Friday of every month.

Enjoy your Labor Day weekend.
