This week, we are: Math: using addition and subtraction strategies to solve one step and two step word problems. Students must use pictures, numbers, and words to answer word problems. We will work on this standard for the next few weeks and assess along the way. Please also work on mastering addition and subtraction facts 1-20 by the end of this quarter! Writing: publishing informational writing and researching a new topic (biographies). Reading: determining the author’s point and reasons in informational texts. We are practicing with a text about Tomochichi. This will be assessed on Friday. Language Arts: decoding and spelling vowel dipthongs with oo sounds- brew, soup, blue, clue, cashew, group, pursue, blew, cartoon, flew. We will also finish our unit on capitalization and proper nouns. IB Central Idea: Relationships Impact Outcomes. We are exploring this idea with how Mary Musgrove, Tomochichi, and James Oglethrope worked together in early Georgia. On Wednesday, we will move onto Science with exploration stations for pushes and pulls. Important Information Field Trip Forms: Please return permission form and payment by THIS Friday, December 7th!
