WEEK OF 1/16/17

Families,

Well, we still have yet to have our first full week back from break! I hope you enjoyed the surprise “ice day.” Here is a look at what we are doing next week:

Dates/Reminders:

  • Popcorn Friday/Spirit Day is Friday, January 27th
  • Scholastic orders are due Tuesday, January 31st

Reading: We are reviewing our reading strategies (Eagle Eye, Flippy the Dolphin, Skippy the Frog, etc.) and learning how to use these in non-fiction books. Typically, non-fiction books are harder and have more unfamiliar words, so this will be great practice to help us when we get to tricky parts.

Writing: We are working on writing letters and will focus on how to write a persuasive letter to someone. We will also learn how to organize our persuasive writing so it makes sense to our reader.

Math: We are still working on strategies for ten groups and how to build double digit numbers.

Spelling: Our words this week are his, they, at, with.

Have a great weekend,

Miss Reisdorff
