This week we will be reading One Riddle One Answer. We will focus on story plot. We will also work on cause and effect and continue our talk with making inferences. Don't forget to be reading at home every night. Encourage your child to try a new genre that they may not have looked at before.
We are reading My Name is Maria Isabel in WEX. We are responding to literature and looking at the ways that the author communicates how the characters are feeling and their attributes. We will continue to read and discuss this book throughout December and January. We also wrote a 'how to' paragraph on how to build a snowman.
In math we have focused on place value to the millions. We will start our discussion of decimals this week. I encourage everyone after completing the home links to read all of the numbers aloud that were used. Part of their test will be to read numbers aloud and write numbers that they hear correctly for both whole numbers and decimals.
